Uckfield MRC exhibition 2026 #2
Surrey Arms (EM) remains a firm favourite of mine. Under new ownership, lots of details have been added as well as new signals. And Port de Crozon (1:50 scale), metre gauge in France, is another brilliant Gordon & Maggie Gravett … Continue reading

Uckfield MRC exhibition 2026 #1
My favourite show comes around again, and once again I got there – just! Despite outstanding wallpapering and other jobs, I took off straight after church on Sunday 18th to drive down to Uckfield. I arrived at about 1:30pm, so … Continue reading

Farnham & District MRC exhibition #3
And a few more photos of the rest….. Swillybegs (O-21) is an exhibition regular, but always worth another looks as a lovely model of a slice of County Donegal. Loughborough Midland (OO). Northleach (P4). Corsham (N). Brixcombe (P4).

Farnham & District MRC exhibition #2
Two Bridges Up Sidings (OO) is close to home – somewhere on the Brighton main line near Three Bridges, I assume. Usually lots of third-rail EMUs to be seen, but today there was an impressive lineup of diesel traction. Wolfstatt … Continue reading

Farnham & District MRC exhibition #1
One letter changed in the name and a week later. I’d have liked to get to this show, but a flu jab and decorating my daughter’s new property got in the way. But Allan supplied the usual photographic record of … Continue reading

Fareham Railex #2
And so to the next batch of excellent layouts. Penworth is a worthy Pendon in N gauge. I rather liked Watts Lane (O9), a modular estate railway, perhaps only spoilt by the shortage of running trains. But I appreciated the … Continue reading

Fareham Railex #1
Saturday, and exhibition time again (avoiding cleaning my youngest’s new property.) Allan couldn’t think of a suitable breakfast near Fareham, so we diverted to the Station Yard Cafe in Alton – for the usual excellent breakfast. We then trundled down … Continue reading

Worthing exhibition
The next day, Allan went down to the coast to visit the Worthing show. Here are a few photos, in very random order….

Folkstone and Headcorn exhibitions #3
We’ll finish off the Folkstone show with another batch of layout photos. Five Mile House (OO) models the East Coast main line in 1935. Trains in the landscape, and a pleasant watch. (The layout is a lot longer than my … Continue reading

Folkstone and Headcorn exhibitions #2
And so on to Folkstone. We’ll start with Nick Falconer’s venerable Konigshafen (N), returning to the Folkstone show after 30 years – and still running well. This is a different layout from the Konigshafen that went to TINGS – Nick … Continue reading
