The Pennine Railway Society holds social evenings at Doncaster Town Fields Sports Club, Bennetthorpe, Doncaster on the first and third Wednesday of every month. Meetings usually consist of a slide or digital image show, presented by an invited guest or one of the club members. Directions to the venue can be found here.
Meetings are held in a private room off the main bar area. The bar serves a range of beers, soft drinks and tea/coffee. Access to all facilities is level and on the ground floor. The club is open from 5pm in the evening and closes at 10pm.
Please gather from 7pm onwards, the shows start promptly at 7.30pm. We have a break midway through and the show will usually finish by 9.30pm after which we draw the raffle. Social evenings are open to non-members who will be assured of a friendly welcome. Reviews of previous social evenings can be found here.
