Hobart Miniature Steam Locomotive Society Inc.
The Hobart Miniature Steam Locomotive Society Inc . (HMSLS) was established in 1974 for the purpose of bringing together a small group of model engineers, living in Southern Tasmania, to foster their interest in building model locomotives.
The Society's activities are centred at our track site located at 289 Flagstaff Gully Road, Lindisfarne, Tasmania, on Hobart's Eastern Shore, a convenient distance from the State's capital centre. See Location Map on Contact Us page,
Facilities: The two tracks at our site are a dual gauge (3.5"& 5") elevated of 350 metres and a 365 metre, 5"ground level with steaming bays, a clubhouse with BBQ facilities, and on-site all weather parking. See below.
Running Days: Running days are normally on the first & third Saturdays of the month commencing at 1 p.m. with alternate Saturdays being given to general maintenance. Steam locomotives do not run on fire ban days.
The HMSLS does not cater for public running, however, invited guests, and members from other clubs affiliated with the Association of Australian Live Steamers Ltd (AALS) and overseas are welcome.
