5th Model Railway Show!

5th Model Railway Show!

Join us for a weekend of railways, large and small in 2025!

We’re hosting our popular Model Railway Show in September with a gathering of model railways in a variety of different scales, including N, OO, O, OO9, S and other gauges! Come along to see layouts at Tunbridge Wells West, Groombridge & Eridge with trade stands, too! This event is fun for all the family; with so much to do, it is a must-attend show in the area. Families can take part in our model railway hunt with your chance to win a prize!

Our engine shed at Tunbridge Wells West will be full of layouts with other selections at Groombridge, Eridge and for the first time on board the trains too! The show is open from 10:00 to 17:00 on Saturday 20th & Sunday 21st September.

Entry tickets can be purchased on the day or online. Prices are shown below.

We expect at least 30 layouts and 10 trade stands to be in attendance at the 2025 show, plus a great two-train service to match using Bulleid Pacific 34053 ‘Sir Keith Park’ as one of the locomotives in service!
