There will also be plenty of trade stalls selling (and buying) models, books and equipment for modelling scenery. Visit our website, www.scoutrail.org.uk for more information about the layouts and traders attending.
All weekend, our fantastic cafe offering bacon rolls, light meals and refreshments.
ScoutRail is hosted by members of the Kidlington Scout Group and has been running for more than 30 years. All proceeds go to the group to maintain its buildings and equipment.
Car parking: There is a car park on site, and if that fills up, there are additional car parks close by in Kidlington centre.
Accessibility: The venue is old not all parts are completely accessible to wheelchairs. The central area of the main hall (containing 5 layouts) is lower than the rest, and only accessible by a small number of steps. The venue entrance, toilets, cafe, small hall and the exhibits around the outer area of the main hall are, however, all on the same level.

Hillingdon Railway Modellers - Test Track Open Day
By Solderpete,
The refreshments are pretty good too.

Lincoln district model railway exhibition
By Dagworth,
Layouts were a mix of entertaining fiction through to well researched models of real places and places that had previously had railways but modelled as though those lines had survived the Beeching cull. A good mix of steam era and more modern diesel content too. One exhibit showed the true definition of a tail chaser, the train missing it's own tail by about 2 millimetres.
I was there helping with a layout presented as a work in progress that got quite a lot on interest showing how a layout was built.
A good social and meal on the Saturday evening in a local pub added to a great all-round weekend.
The show was VERY busy both days!
My thanks to the organising club and to @Clive Mortimore for letting me be his wingman for the weekend
