This annual show held in a bright, modern venue, which is adjacent to the West Somerset Railway's station in Minehead, right on the seafront. It will be slightly larger this year with around 14 high quality working layouts, one of which has never been seen in public before and several have not been seen in the west country before. There will be a wide range of trade support, and demonstrations plus the Great Western Society will also be in attendance. Hot & cold food/drinks will be on offer all day and there is parking (Pay & Display) right outside the venue, plus free parking in the surrounding roads.
The West Somerset Railway is holding its annual Steam Fayre on the same week-end, so why not have a week-end away and come to the show on Saturday & the Fayre on the Sunday? It will be a great week-end and all are welcome!

Hillingdon Railway Modellers - Test Track Open Day
By Solderpete,
A friendly get-together and good chance to run your models.
The refreshments are pretty good too.

Lincoln district model railway exhibition
By Dagworth,
A well presented local club show with around a dozen layouts in 2, 4 and 7mm scales. The O gauge layout was actually one of the smallest layouts present.
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

Lincoln district model railway exhibition
By Grampus,
A really enjoyable local show. I've just come back from spending a couple of hours there this afternoon. Friendly people and some great modelling. My personal favourite layout was 'Horncastle', which ticked a lot of (mostly blue and yellow with Railfreight grey and red) boxes for me. Well worth popping along tomorrow if you have a few minutes to spare. Thanks to all concerned for a nice afternoon out.
All the best,
Paul
