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

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.

Macclesfield Model Railway Group's Annual Exhibition ( PLEASE NOTE: NEW VENUE!!!! )
By Merfyn Jones,
I was there for a MBF meeting/exhibition last Saturday. Excelent hall with all the facilities you need.
The bus from the station was a very good help for those that want to come by train rather than drive.

By Cymru Rails,
The Swansea Railway Modellers Group does an excellent job every year with this one, and it is well worth attending. It always features a fabulous set of layouts, traders, and societies on display. If you weren’t able to attend this year, check out my video to give you an idea of what to expect at the show and make sure to attend in 2026: Swansea Model Railway Exhibition 2025
