Our History
The club was formed on 9th February 1982 by a local radio station, Radio Victory, and the Fratton Bargain Shop. The club was formally known as the "Radio Victory" model railway club. The name was changed to simply "Victory" Model Railway Club  

In 1989, due to the expansion of the business, the club had to find new accommodation. The club moved to Aldershot where it met regularly for around a year, then the club was fortunate enough to find new accommodation back in Portsmouth. 
We now meet at St James Church in Milton, Portsmouth. 

Our Mission
The main aim of the club is to provide an environment where model railway and train enthusiasts of all backgrounds and levels of interest and experience can me to enjoy and discuss their hobby. The main activity of  club evenings is furthering our knowledge and understanding of all aspects of model railways whilst designing and building model railway layouts.

Our Membership
The experience of the club's membership spans many years as does their passion for all aspects of model railways.
From designing and building track layouts to wiring and building control mechanisms, to the maintenance of rolling stock all aspects are available in the club.
With us you can be involved in anything from building the legs on which the layouts are mounted, to laying the track, to modelling and landscaping the track, to testing and running rolling stock.

As well as club meetings we also exhibit our layouts several times a year and this will give you the opportunity to run a full layout.
The club engages in a full social life. This includes visits to many model railway exhibitions around the country, trips to preserved railways and events and the annual dinner and skittles night.
