The Swiss Railways Society was formed in 1980 for the purpose of bringing together those interested on Swiss Railways, but over the years has attracted those with a liking for other forms of transportation such as trams, boats cable cars and funicular railways. Our numbers include many whose technical knowledge is slight but whose love of Switzerland and its railways bring them comfortably into contact with the historically and technically minded member as well as model makers at all levels of experience. Although most of our members live in the UK, membership is open to all and we have many who have joined from Europe, Australasia and North America. Two people in the same family, at the same address may hold joint membership, paying a single subscription each year and receiving only one copy of each issue of Swiss Express.
