A family friendly event in an accessible venue with nearly 20 interesting and varied model railway layouts plus quality trade support. Close to the A2, Ebbsfleet station and Bluewater, there’s free parking, a regular bus service that stops nearby and wheelchair access.
There’s plenty to see at the Gravesend Model Railway Show, with activities for children, including driving the model trains and colouring-in. Children (Under 16) accompanied by an adult are able to join us for FREE. That means one adult can bring several children with them and only pay £5; and we accept cash and card payment (unfortunately, not American Express).
We will be offering an extensive range of hot and cold food and refreshments. Plus on Sunday we will serve roast dinners with all the trimmings between 12-2pm; Beef, Turkey plus a vegetarian option.
Ebbsfleet railway station is only 17 minutes from Central London, 10 minutes from Stratford International and Gravesend railway station is 11 minutes from Dartford. Northfleet School for Girls is about 2-3 minutes’ drive from the Northfleet turn-off from the A2.
Also, there will be a different vintage car on display outside the entrance on Saturday and Sunday. Those who remember Doctor Who's car 'Bessie' will be in for a treat!

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
