Now in its 31st year, the UK's leading model engineering exhibition attracts a dedicated and enthusiastic following of modellers.    Devoted to all aspects of model engineering, visitors will see nearly a thousand models.

Railway enthusiasts see ‘in the flesh' models illustrating the history and development of the steam locomotive, in many cases models are of full size locomotives which no longer exist. 

We will have a very comprehensive selection of trade stands and will also be presenting workshops staffed by leading experts who will explain the intricacies of machining, advise the uninitiated on where to start or maybe simply rekindle an earlier interest in this fascinating hobby.
