How Can I Get Involved?

There are a number of ways you can get involved or help the preservation of the Panel:

Join the Society

You can support the preservation and restoration work of Swindon Panel Society by becoming a member.

See our Membership Information page for more details.

Become a demonstrator

If you are interested in becoming actively involved then you will be most welcome to join our team of volunteer demonstrators. No experience necessary; we will show you how to operate the panel, and provide you with answers to the questions you will most frequently be asked.

Please let us know by e-mail or at one of our open days. You can make a difference to the success of the Project!

Join our E-mail list

If you are interested in keeping up to date with the project then sign up to our e-mail update list. (We won’t share your details and you can unsubscribe at any time).

Come to an open day

Our Calendar shows the days on which the panel is operating. Come along and have a hands-on demonstration of how trains were signalled from the 1960s through to the present day.

Contribute to our Research

We are trying to research as much as we can about the history of MAS in the Swindon area. You can see some of our research here.

Do you have one of the signalling notices on our ‘Wanted’ list, or a photograph of the panel that you could send us a scan of?

Do you have a memory of the panel? Did you work it? We’d love to hear from you!
