Can you join a model railway club if you are not an expert?
Most, if not all, model railway clubs are welcoming of new members that still have a lot to learn, so don't let inexperience put you off approaching one.
Model railway clubs are a great way for you to meet like-minded individuals who share a passion for the hobby and railways in general. Apart from the knowledge and support you will gain and have access to, you will make some great new friends that want to chat about all things railway related.
You should be prepared to do your bit if your local club has its own railway, and if a theme has been adopted or a particular sub-interest is shared amongst the club members, you should not expect that to change significantly just because of your arrival. But providing what they're doing is attractive to you, you will get a lot of social pleasure from joining a club.
