    In our popular venue of Fort Pitt Grammar School, Chatham, Kent our 21st Exhibition will offer a greater selection of layouts, covering a variety of scales and gauges with high quality trade support for both the average & specialist modeller. Admission rates for adults remain unchanged at £5 for the eleventh year, while rates for children and families remain at very low rates - £2 and £12, respectively!
     
    This year's layouts, from N Gauge to 1/32 scale, include: Alt Furka; Cato Pass; Downlands; Gravesend West (exhibition debut); Habbaniya, Iraq 1941; King West; Maxwell; Medway Quay; Midhurst; Oaklands; Paddington; Scallywag Corner; Westfield and a live steam layout, plus other exhibits. There is also the usual selection of trade stands, societies and demonstrators - and we're pleased to feature internet modellers Clarisse Leviton and Reese Comer.

    Wheelchair access, free on-site parking and a friendly atmosphere await the visitor, plus modelling demonstrations. A range of hot & cold food/refreshments is available.

    Fort Pitt Grammar School is about 5-10 minutes walk from Chatham Railway Station & close to Rochester/Chatham Town Centres, and the A2/M2 - follow the signs for the University for the Creative Arts (UCA) Rochester, we are next door. In fact, why don't you leave the car at home this year and use our free bus service linking Strood, Rochester and Chatham stations with Fort Pitt Grammar School (on both days - Saturday 7 September and Sunday 8 September).

    The free bus service will start from Fort Pitt Grammar School around 10.00, operating a shuttle to/from the school serving Chatham, Rochester and Strood stations as well as the Royal Engineers Museum, Gillingham to serve the Medway Modelling Club Show and connect with the Medway Open Top Bus Tour. Further details and timetables will be available later on through our Facebook page.

    • Leamington & Warwick Model Railway Society - Open Weekend
      By Phil Parker,
         Excellent day. With delicious cake!
       

       

       

       

       



    • Robertsbridge Model Railway Show 24-25 May 2025
      By clogger,
         Good little show. Bit biased though as I’m exhibiting at the show and have done so for a couple of years now.
       
    • Gauge O Guild Winter Show
      By LAWLOGG Editor,
         A few words about the show, some pictures of us setting up our stands (and, more significantly, a comprehensive video of the attendees) are available at this link.
    • The National Festival of Railway Modelling @ NEC
      By 7013,
         Considering this is the first show by BRM I thought they did a reall good job. 
      Quibbles: I know you have to rent the floorspace by the square metere, but it got a bit crowded at times between stalls/layouts. 
      Positives: Lots of good trade support, some superb layouts, and very helpful friendly staff.
      Warley was always going to be a hard act to follow, and the organisers did well. 
      I can see this growing in the future 
    • Tyneside Model Railway Exhibition
      By jacko,
         Drove down from Lanark early on Saturday morning (6 hour round trip!) to arrive shortly after 10am.  The first surprise was seeing my cousin showing his O gauge layout in the foyer (shown as east Glasson port authority on the programme but it wasn't that). Nice to have a chat with him as we've not met for a couple of years. Moving on to the main halls, there seemed to be plenty of space for viewing, helped no doubt by my being there so early. I'd driven down especially to see Grantham, Pelaw and Fencehouses having seen them in the mags and I wasn't disappointed so spent at least an hour swapping between the three. All three layouts exceeded expectations but it was also great to see Richmond in the flesh, it having only just appeared in print last month. I saw Alston in Glasgow in February and there's been no drop in quality. However,  my favourite (and I'm probably biased as I'm modelling the s&c) was Kirtley Bridge - what a superb layout, the quality of modelling and the atmosphere was outstanding. I think I spent around 3 hours at the show and was absolutely wrecked by the time I got home but it was well worth it. I'll be watching out for next year's dates to make sure they're kept clear.
