All major credit cards accepted 
Adults £17.00 (accompanied under 16 year olds free). 

Family Ticket £25.00 (2 adults and 2 children) SUNDAY ONLY 

 

NEW Due to the extra costs incurred providing the facility of purchasing advance tickets we have decided for our 2024 exhibition that we will not be offering this facility, we will however review the situation for later exhibitions, apologies for any inconvenience that this may cause.

 

The Stafford Exhibition in 2024 will be a week later than previous years and will no longer clash with the 2024 Scaleforum Exhibition 

 

The new facilities of Bingley Hall have been huge success in the last two years with its much improved facilities and almost twice as much floor space as in the three adjacent halls we used prior to 2022

 

We presently have over 50 layouts booked to attend and around 60 traders, to supply all your modelling requirements.

 

Further information is posted on our website www.staffordrailwaycircle.org.uk/exhibition

 

The demonstration area returns to the balcony area as in 2022

 

NEW for 2024 will be a dedicated area to encourage families and children to enjoy this wonderful hobby.

 

NEW On the subject of younger members we last year teamed up with a local scout group who over the two days of the exhibition provided much support in many areas of the exhibition, including stewarding, cash desk area and helping out in the tea & coffee area used by the traders, members and layout.

 

NEW Stafford Railway Circle in return have paid for scout camp weekend as a thank you.

 

NEW We are also organising a modelling event at our clubrooms to enable the scouts to obtain there Modeling Scout badge.   

 

NEW We will also be having a very large Playmobil layout built by father & son on the balcony area as well our legendary Hogsmead on Sodor (Thomas Layout) in our continued effect to attract families with children and introduce them to the wonderful hobby of model railways.

 

Disabled access to the first floor together with full facilities whether a cuppa, snack or light meal will be available.

 
As in previous years there will free parking for well 2500 vehicles and a courtesy bus operating from Stafford Station on both days.

I'm already looking forward to it!

[Dava]

Having been in 2023 and with the sad demise of Warley, this show is top of my list for this year, along with Soar Valley in Loughborough.

[Long Line]

Those scouts did a Great job last year. A credit to the uniform. Studious polite and keen. The tea just kept coming which is always a welcome gesture.

 

Looking forwards to this years one.

[Mark Forrest]

Excellent news about the change of date, looking forward to being able to attend the SRC show and Scaleforum this year.

[Happy Hippo]

Stafford show is always a must do in my railway exhibition diary.  

 

One thing the club does so well is getting very large aisles between the layouts which makes the show far less claustrophobic.
