Electric Railway Society
About the Society
The Electric Railway Society was established in 1946 as a society dedicated to promoting interest in, and the study of, all aspects of electric railways both in the UK and overseas.
Significant aspects of the Society changed in 2014 when:
(i) publication of the ‘Journal’ ceased, replaced by a website;
(ii) members were no longer subject to a subscription fee, and became in effect ‘supporters’ of the Society;
(iii) its own regular meeting programme, was replaced by joint arrangements made with the Light Rail Transit Association and the Tramway and Light Railway Association.
