The annual Macclesfield Model Railway Exhibition will be held over the weekend of 5th and 6th April 2025 at:
Tytherington High School,
Manchester Road,
Macclesfield,
Cheshire.
SK10 2EE
There will be the usual High standard of modelling on display, as anyone who has visited the show before will attest.
Each and every year, we go to extraordinary lengths to try and ensure that the visiting content is not only of an extremely high standard, but also has not been seen in the North West of England previously.
In line with that mantra, we have 4 of the gathering layouts that will be making their Exhibition debuts at our show - one of which is a 42ft long, 4mm finescale LNW inspired layout from Peter Thomas.
We will also have the fantastic restaurant on site yet again, offering hot and cold meals, plus snacks and drinks.
There will also be the FREE vintage double decker bus providing nostalgic travel from Macclesfield railway station and pick up points around the town, to the venue.
Further details will be entered on here when available, but this show is not one to be missed!

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.
