We also offer BCC members exclusive access into our Members Lounge at selected events, where you will get the chance to chat to members of our highly knowledgeable Research and Design team, who are ready and waiting to answer all your questions ... the trickier the better!
The Bachmann Times magazine is also where we get to showcase our limited edition, BCC exclusive models. Each quarter we bring you a brand-new model from either our Bachmann Branchline, Bachmann Narrow Gauge or Graham Farish ranges, sometimes both! These models are exclusive to our club members and are only available to buy directly through the club; online, by phone or mail order, or at events that we attend - Click here to explore our current range.
What is in your ‘TrainMail’ e-newsletter?
By becoming a member of the BCC you become a part of the Bachmann family, which means we always want you to be the first to know about the latest announcements and goings on in the Club and at Bachmann HQ.
TrainMail will keep you up to date about the latest models arriving from your favourite Bachmann brands, such as Bachmann Branchline and Graham Farish, plus you will also find details of our latest limited edition models and any events that we are attending. We also have TrainMail competitions where you can win event tickets and more!
What is the Members Day?
As part of your Bachmann Collectors Club Membership package we offer you the chance to attend our Members Day each year, this fabulous FREE day out is usually held at a heritage railway or preserved site around the country, enabling you to go behind the scenes and gain exclusive access to areas that are not usually open to the public!

F.A.Q.
What happens at the end of my membership?
It’s quick and easy to renew your membership with the Bachmann Collectors Club and most of our members continue with us year after year – many have been with us since the club was first established more than 25 years ago! Whilst many clubs offer a one-time incentive to join, we value all of our members so whether you’re joining up for the first time or have been with us for many years, each time you renew you will receive the same great package of membership benefits outlined above during the course of the 12-month membership.
How do I renew my lapsed (or about to lapse) membership?
Whether you’re joining up for the first time, we treat new and existing members the same so when you renew, you will get the same great package of membership benefits each time you renew! You can renew your membership of the Bachmann Collectors Club on-line up to 1 calendar month in advanced of the Expiry end date, or you can call on 01455 245565 at anytime. There is no need to re-register for the site. Your membership number remains the same. However, if your membership has lapsed more than 12 months ago and your Login no longer works you may need to Register again, and you will be issued a new membership number.
