Event details

SWING, an acronym for "Small and Wonderful Industrial, Narrow Gauge and light railways", is the now well established and popular Annual Exhibition held by the South Downs Area Group of the 7mm Narrow Gauge Association.
We have a reputation for presenting an exhibition which showcases some of the best  (generally small) layouts to be found on the circuit and to do this in a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. Come and join us - we can promise an interesting and worthwhile visit.
If you are tempted but come from further afield, why not make a weekend of it? There are plenty of hotels and B&Bs in the Littlehampton, Bognor and Worthing area and you are within an easy drive of the Amberley Industrial Museum with its 2ft gauge railway, the Bluebell to the North-east, the Mid-Hants railway to the North-west and at a stretch the Isle of Wight Railway system to the South=west- and much more!. Treat yourselves and your family!
 
Our next exhibition will be held on:-
 
Saturday 18th May, 2019
1000 - 1630
The Littlehampton Academy
Fitzalan Road
Littlehampton
BN17 6FE

This year we are pleased to be supporting Chestnut Tree House - A wonderful local charity which cares for 300 children and young adults 
from 0-19 years of age with progressive life-shortening conditions
 
WE WILL ALSO BE HOSTING THE 7MM NARROW GAUGE ASSOCIATION AGM - but don't worry if that's not your thing.
As usual we will have top quality layouts in a wide variety of scales and gauges so you will all be catered for!
 
Details of our Layouts in 2019
As usual we will have yet another selection of superb layouts in a wide range of scales and gauges for you to enjoy. Details will be listed below as they are confirmed:
 
Bridport Town - Freelance Dorset O-16.5
Brown Bear Bottom - U.S. Outline Gn15
Bullock Falls - On30
Duffield lane - Freelance Sussex O-16.5
Fintonagh - Imaginary 4mm Scale, 21mm Irish Broad Gauge
Hinksey Yard- Modern N Standard Gauge
Jelly Bean Factory - O-16.5
Lambton & Verdane - Freelance O16.5
Lansdowne Green - Freelance (Slindon Vale Railway) Sussex O-16.5
Mers Les Bains - Imaginary 1:32 Scale French Narrow Gauge
Scarside - Freelance (Scarrdale Railway) OO9
Shell Haven - BR Diesel Era OO Standard Gauge
Sillean - N Standard Gauge
Stodden Hundred Light Railway - Freelance O Standard Gauge
Strathmore L.I.P. - BR and Post-Privatisation Diesels intermingled OO Standard Gauge
The Yard - Freelance O Standard Gauge & O-16.5
Three Bridges - O9
Up the line - War Department Light Railways O-16.5
Wagon Lift (Angus Bentley) - O Standard Gauge
Worton Court - Freelance O16.5
 
Landsdowne Green and Worton Court comprise two modules from one of the earliest, possibly the earliest, O-16.5 Modular Layouts the builders of which became founding members of the 7mm Narrow Gauge Association. Therefore it is particularly significant that these two layouts are appearing, albeit separately, at this show in the association's 40th anniversary year. The layouts are, it is believed by the author, no longer able to be joined together in a modular format.
