Exhibition

The club runs an annual exhibition every year on a Saturday in mid February at the local leisure centre. It's one of the largest one-day model railway shows in the area and known for the quality and variety of the exhibits showing a range of different gauges, scales and prototypes. We also endeavour to have a range of interesting sales stands from traditional model shops to specialist traders and societies.

Highlights from our

2024 Exhibition

 We had ~1,300 adults and children through the door this year.  Comments were mostly positive saying how good the exhibits were and in fact how enjoyable the show was.  We aimed to have wider walkways between the rows of exhibits to make it easier to move around and view them.

The exhibition was visited by Dawn Quest a well known model railway journalist and her video record of the exhibition can be viewed on her website here  (comments do not necessarily reflect those of TMRC).
