Our next annual Abingdon model railway show – Abrail – is scheduled for Saturday 4th March 2023 at Abingdon and Witney College. Please note this a few weeks earlier than our previous regular slot, in order to avoid conflicts with other shows.
This year we will be hosting 25+ high quality layouts and 10+ traders as well as speakers and demonstrations. It promises to be a great day out for both railway modelling enthusiasts and families alike. Admission £10 on the day or £9 in advance. Under 18s free if accompanied by a paying adult.
We have more space in the college this year, so we’ve booked even more layouts!! This year we have (at least) 25 layouts booked to attend, from N-gauge to O-gauge, from big to small, and from pre-grouping to modern image. Layouts confirmed so far include:
