Model Steamer Club Spring Show 2018

The Model Steamer Club Spring Show Saturday 28th April 2018 The Model Steamer Club has a history stretching back over 40 years as a group of Clyde steamer enthusiasts formed the club in the early 1970's to build and sail working 1:48 scale models of the paddle and turbine steamers which are such a huge part of Clyde shipping history. The Model Steamer Club is based at Rouken Glen pond in East Renfrewshire. Modern diesel car ferries and other Merchant and Naval models can also be seen sailing at Rouken Glen on Saturday afternoons. Our scale model piers allow some practice at the difficult art of berthing. Particularly when a stiff breeze is blowing! This video was edited and uploaded while the United Kingdom was in Lockdown during the Coronavirus pandemic. Memories of happier times in the past are stirred in the footage of the models. We trust you enjoy the film and when these difficult days are past you would be most welcome to join us at the pond.
