The service will start half an hour before Railex opens and the last bus will depart Stoke Mandeville Stadium a few minutes after the show closes each day. The bus service will be run by a vintage routemaster bus. Parking Information Parking at William Harding School Free parking for Railex visitors is available at Stoke Mandeville Stadium in marked bays, in previous years we have also used the William Harding School for additional car parking spaces. This year due to unannounced building work at this location we are unable to use the school for extra parking as we have done in the past, We would like recommend that visitors may like to use the town centre car parks and use the free and excellently restored Routemaster bus from the railway station to Railex that runs up to every forty minutes. Car parks in Aylesbury are free on Sunday and we recommend the long stay Friarscroft (588 places) car park close to the station which is £3 for all day on Saturday and free on Sunday detail on all town centre car parks can be found here http://eplanning.aylesburyvaledc.gov.uk/CarParks/aylesbury.htm . The roads around the school and stadium car parks are residential and although have no parking restrictions should you park there we would like to keep our neighbours happy so please abide with all road parking regulations, park safely and keep all access areas and driveways clear. There is likely to be more space on the school side of the railway line. Stoke Mandeville Hospital car parks that are located close to Railex are chargeable but at the weekends generally tend to be quiet. Charges are: 2 - 4 hours: £3.00 and 4 - 8 hours: £4.00. see their website for full details. Access from the hospital is next to the Cancer Care Unit, just follow the road from the pay & display carparks. www.buckinghamshirehospitals.nhs.uk/getting-to-stoke-mandeville-hospital.htm Saturday Bus and train times Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Bigcheeseplant Posted November 1, 2009 Author Share Posted November 1, 2009 Yet another cracking lineup David - about the best show of the year for me Thanks for the comment, I try to ensure the standard keeps high year on year. 2011 is looking good too won't say too much about that show until next years show is out of the way, but it will be a treat for those in to O Gauge.

David Bigcheeseplant Posted December 2, 2009 Author Share Posted December 2, 2009 An update on traders Alan Gibson are now attending and Cheltenham Model Centre has replaced Totally trains as our box trader, as the later is no longer doing exhibitions. I still have a few layouts to confirm although the total layout footage currently exceeds Railex 2009. David Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Bigcheeseplant Posted December 9, 2009 Author Share Posted December 9, 2009 I have edited the traders list at the top of the page who are new for 2010. When I started to put together the first show in 2005 I thought it would be good to get a few of the good traders, I think six years on I have now got every trader I could have wished for, and also have a healthy waiting list too.

Buckjumper Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Last weekend a small group descended on a village hall in Oxfordshire to see East Lynn and Nunstanton bolted together for the first time ever. The hall was too small to attach the quay, and there were one or two glitches to overcome, but this is a small taster of what you can expect in May: Nunstanton. Great Eastern main line to the right, GER branch diverging to the left. A little photoshop work to extend the field on the right, and the sky above. First loco down the line - also Trevor's first loco, built in 1973. East lynn twinkles in the distance. The Coffee Pot leaves Nunstanton's environs for the swing bridge. The view across the bridge to East Lynn is rather special. The branch on the right, previously GE/M&GN joint is now solely M&GN owned. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
10800 Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Ta for that Adrian I wonder how much scope for these hook-ups there is, because they are potentially very interesting. Last year's Railex had Pulborough and Ferring for instance, and it would have been great to see those two connected - I suppose the main stumbling block is electric/control compatibility once you have a suitable adaptor piece to do the mechanical connection. Looking forward to seeing this later in the year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Bigcheeseplant Posted January 7, 2010 Author Share Posted January 7, 2010 Because of the Queens diamond jubilee in 2012 and the extra Bank Holiday in June 2012 and the moving of the late May bank holiday from the end of May to the beginning of June, we will keep Railex 2012 on the last full weekend of May, the dates will be 26 & 27 May 2012 David Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Bigcheeseplant Posted February 24, 2010 Author Share Posted February 24, 2010 Bawdsey by Paul Marshall Potter is another confirmed layout for this year http://bawdsey.wordpress.com/dimensions-exhibition-requirements/ We have also confirmed the vintage busses again for this year, although the two busses we used last year have swapped days and the Green Routemaster will be used on the Saturday and the Red one on the Sunday, My other half has offered to sell Railex programmes on the bus on both days.

David Bigcheeseplant Posted May 3, 2010 Author Share Posted May 3, 2010 The following is for those people planning on coming by car to Railex, as the William Harding School car park we have used in the past few years is now not avalible for Railex parking. David Parking at William Harding School Free parking for Railex visitors is available at Stoke Mandeville Stadium in marked bays, in previous years we have also used the William Harding School for additional car parking spaces. This year due to unannounced building work at this location we are unable to use the school for extra parking as we have done in the past, We hope to secure additional free parking in Stoke Mandeville Hospital staff areas in the hospital grounds adjacent to the stadium car park and some extra grassed areas at the stadium itself. We would like recommend that visitors may like to use the town centre car parks and use the free and excellently restored Routemaster bus from the railway station to Railex that runs up to every forty minutes. Car parks in Aylesbury are free on Sunday and we recommend the long stay Friarscroft (588 places) car park close to the station which is £3 for all day on Saturday and free on Sunday detail on all town centre car parks can be found here http://eplanning.aylesburyvaledc.gov.uk/CarParks/aylesbury.htm . The roads around the school and stadium car parks are residential and although have no parking restrictions should you park there we would like to keep our neighbours happy so please abide with all road parking regulations, park safely and keep all access areas and driveways clear.
