Many Model Railway Layouts from all over the country, including the only chance to see Aylesbury LNWR by Geoff Williams, this fifty-five year old model which represents the former Aylesbury High Street station as it would have looked in the year 1911, to a the very high standard of realism, as well as around 50 manufacturers, traders, societies and demonstrations. The exhibition has disabled access.
Up to two children can be admitted free with each paying adult on Sunday only.
There is limited on site car parking at the stadium especially on the Saturday, so we recommend that you use the car parks in Aylesbury, the Friars Croft car park (£3 all day Saturday and £1 on Sunday) located in the town centre to the rear of Morrison’s and catch the free vintage bus from the railway station car park, which will also link up with Chiltern trains services from London Marylebone.
There is also parking in Stoke Mandeville hospital adjacent to the stadium, but it is recommended that visitors use and use the vintage shuttle bus to the venue from the railway station car park, a time table will be posted on the website http://www.railex.org.uk

Immingham Model Railway Show
By SealionSteve,
A great show, as always. Some excellent layouts. Thank you to all concerned.

Weston-Super-Mare Model Railway Show 2026
By ianmianmianm,
Great mix of layouts and trade,
....but the floorplan created real bottlenecks around the entrance which was also the route between halls (via the changing rooms!) and so was already going to be busy anyway. But there were further trade stands and coffee stand put there.... creating groups of people lingering and blocking...... why oh why!
The catering van outside - ended up giving up because as we all stood queuing to buy food, nothing happening in the van, there was a lot of playing with kids and babies but the 4 people there couldn't manage to free up one to take orders.

SOUTHAMPTON MODEL RAILWAY SHOW -JANUARY 24TH/25TH 2026
By Robin Brasher,
Despite South West Trains' best efforts I managed to get to the exhibition on time. I had my doubts when they announced at Southampton Central Station that my train would be running non stop to Waterloo but I got on a Cross Country train that stopped at Southampton Airport. The pictures show:
1. My arrival at the exhibition on a heritage bus provided by the organisers.
2. There were a lot of people at the exhibition and a huge queue for the coffee machines. There seemed to be more people there than in previous years.
3. Essence of Ventnor in 0 gauge was one of the splendid layouts there. I saw it last year at the Brockenhurst exhibition.
4. Seaton Junction in 00 gauge was another interesting layout. There was an N gauge model of Seaton Junction at Pecorama that it donated to our model railway club so I found it interesting to see Seaton Junction in a larger scale.
I was not so lucky with my return journey as South West Trains was unable to run any trains from Southampton Central to Bournemouth and Weymouth so I ended up having to catch a taxi to Bournemouth.

WMRA Annual Exhibition
By Robin Brasher,
Excellent show. plenty of free parking, over 30 layouts, lots of traders and full catering. I liked the scenery on the illustrated 009 gauge Feorag layout set in an imaginary island west of Cornwall. TT:120 seems to be well received with two small oval layouts on display.
