The Ground Level 5 Inch Gauge Main Line Association, GL5 for short, regularly puts on an impressive show at Doncaster every May. This year, 2018, was no exception, with its massed wagons.
GL5 is a growing organisation and an active one. It offers members driver training and a whole range of other help including:
• Scale standards for Wagons, Coaches, Locomotives and Track work.
• Support and advice on all aspects of prototype railway operation in 5″ gauge.
• Rolling stock projects for members from kits (currently 6 wheel tank wagons).
• Invitations to visit clubs and private 5″ ground level railways.
• Technical assistance in design and construction of ground level layouts.
• Promotion of trade or private supplies of castings and materials to scale standards.
• Regional meetings of members for talks and discussions on selected topics, arranged by area co-ordinators.
• Invitations to GL5 rallies.
