The Japanese Railway Society (JRS) was founded in 1991 in
London,
England, to promote the knowledge of the
railways of Japan in England
and
other non-Japanese-speaking parts of the world. Since 1991, there have
been
several
activities like exhibitions (also of railway models), a TV-show
(on
Naruhodo The World, Fuji TV), many meetings in England,
Germany and the
Netherlands,
and many guided tours to Japan.
The membership is now more than 300 persons in about 10 countries
worldwide.
