   The 36th annual model railway exhibition organised by the High Wycombe and District Model Railway Society, is being held at the John Hampden Grammar School on Saturday 7th November. This year also sees the introduction of a Grand Draw, with an exciting first prize of a cab ride on a Chiltern Railways train. Visitors to the show will also be able to benefit from a number of informative lectures about the hobby; the headline lecture is being given by Hornby Hobbies about the development of the production of one of their models from concept to hitting the shops.
