    Hi Advance tickets from The Model Rail Scotland website are via post and this service closes 1 week prior to the show opening allowing Royal Mail enough time to deliver the tickets - we do have plans in place should any tickets not arrive via post and this is handled via our advance ticket Manager whom will deal with this issue should it arise prior to the show. We also have a option to use Ticketmaster where you can purchase and print your tickets using your home printer or use the QR code on your phone to gain entry - here is the link https://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/model-rail-scotland-tickets/artist/5368554 Ticketmaster tickets can be purchased up to show opening each day. Hope this helps Colin Publicity

    Anyone looking for some Tunnocks containers can find them here. Limited numbers made from a small additional run https://www.rainbowrailways.co.uk/containers-other-containers-c-37_51.html While we were able to increase the number of OO gauge prior to the show, the N gauge was not possible at short notice.

    Amazing feed back on this years show - its great to hear. Prior to the door opening Grant Thomson from Clyde 1 and Bauer Hits radio Network Scotland entertained the awaiting crowd in the foyer of the SEC – something that has become a regular slot pre – show opening. This Year Simon Kohler joined by Archie Brown had the honour of cutting the golden ribbon as part of the Hornby 100th year celebrations, this was later followed by a celebratory cake presented by Ian Porteous (Exhibition Manager) to Simon Kohler and Montana Hoeren Happy Birthday Hornby
