Welcome to the London Area of the Irish Railway Record Society.

We provide a forum for those interested in Irish transport, particularly railways, covering all aspects of the subject – historical and contemporary, infrastructure, rolling stock, operations and people, throughout the island.

Events

We hold monthly meetings at a central London venue from October to April every year hosting illustrated talks by speakers on a wide range of Irish transport topics.

For details of last season’s meetings, please go to Previous Events.

For details of next season’s meetings, please go to Next Events.

Each Spring we hold our Transport Collectors’ Market at Chiswick, West London. For further information, please see Transport Collectors’ Market.
