0We bring the Society’s Wycrail exhibition experience, with a high standard of quality and inspirational layouts, once again to a “small and friendly” venue, with the second show in 2025 as ‘MRX25 – Autumn‘, building on the success of the Society’s Clubroom Open Days – popular with locals and experienced modellers alike.
2025 is the 200th anniversary of the birth of the modern railway. Britain and the world changed forever. Railway 200 celebrates the past, present and future of rail. We at the High Wycombe & District Model Railway Society are pleased to be supporting Railway 200 with our two exhibitions during 2025 and other activities.

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
