The biggest part of our business is by far Model Railways, so of course, it is right for us to end the celebrations with a railway weekend. With model railways on display, live demonstrations, competitions, giveaways and more, this event will showcase everything railway modelling offers.

We will have a selection of visiting layouts on display covering a variety of scales. Gilly North will exhibit her layout Cynon Valley, which features a “Barry Inspired Scrap Yard,” and Brian Taylor will showcase two layouts: one featuring both O scale and O16.5 narrow gauge lines and a separate OO9 scale layout. Also attending the event are members of the Bognor Regis Model Railway Club with their layouts Crookham Vale and Fordham.

ATD Models will also be in attendance at this event with a hands on “make-and-build” throughout the day. There will be an opportunity to build an exclusive ATD Models Lineside Hut kit and, once complete, the chance to set it into a scene with scenic products and accessories before taking it home. This is the perfect opportunity to see just how sturdy card kits can be while also meeting the ATD team. Although this part of the event is even suitable for younger modellers, we do ask that all children under the age of 14 are accompanied by and adult when participating.

We are also pleased to announce that this event will also feature the Kato Mini Diorama Circus. This layout is assembled from Kato Mini Bases, which are assembled and decorated, with each one completed by different modellers from around the world. These bases are then connected to form one layout known as the Kato Mini Diorama Circus, and you can get involved too. Find out more here.

Don’t forget to view the other events happening throughout August.
