Earlier this year Pendon Museum hosted two very special model layouts; Andrew Ullyott's 'Wheal Elizabeth' courtesy of Jeremy Good and Iain Rice's 'Trerice' alongside an exhibition on the evolution of china clay transport via rail, with the wider exhibition remaining on display. 
It was such a success that we decided to run another weekend event, this time hosting Andrew Ullyott's 'Wheal Elizabeth' courtesy of Jeremy Good and 'Newton Heath Works' by Mike Baker and Martin Finney on the weekend of 6th & 7th December. Incidentally, this will be the last weekend Pendon Museum will be open until February 2026 (apart from our special opening on 29th, 30th & 31st December to celebrate Christmas and the New Year). There will be no additional cost for the exhibition and there is no need to book in advance.
