We have a large selection of layouts attending, representing different eras, scales, regions and countries, along with traders with stands selling every conceivable model item from the smallest piece of scenery to the grandest of steam engines.
We also usually arrange to have some experienced demonstrators on hand to provide tuition on scenic modelling skills, and children may operate one of the Society’s most popular models, Edward’s Junction and Thomas End.
