Model Engineering Society

At the PMES, our primary objective is to foster an interest in engineering by building miniature replicas of locomotives, stationary engines, internal combustion engines, hot air engines, machine tools, and any other engineering related projects to the original working specifications. There is a great emphasis on steam preservation.

Train Rides

We have a running day every first Sunday of the month when members of the public can buy tickets to enjoy a ride around the miniature railway circuit, hauled by steam and diesel locomotives. Visitors are encouraged to make use of our beautiful park and braais for picnics.

Party Venue

In addition we run children’s birthday parties every Saturday and sometimes during the week when a miniature train pulled by a diesel locomotive provides rides for all.
