This exhibition is unique in that it is totally dedicated to N Gauge Modelling. Nearly 3,000 dedicated N Gauge modelers visit every year.
This year the organisers are expecting the largest selection of specialist suppliers ever seen at the show, currently 44 trade exhibitors are confirmed to be attending. This will be THE place to visit to stock up on all the materials and models that any model rail enthusiast could ever need.
There will also be over 30 layouts on display depicting American, Continental, BR Steam and Modern Image layouts as well as four of the leading societies for N Gauge enthusiasts.
There will also be a very special private collection of Lonestar Models on display for visitors’ enjoyment, this will be located next to the American Lonestar layout “Charlieville”.
This is a hugely popular specialist railway exhibition which totally focuses on N Gauge. Nowhere else can you see and enjoy the N Gauge scale in such volumes of either layouts or exhibitors making it the only place to see all things N Gauge.

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.

Swansea Model Railway Exhibition
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
