Annual Exhibition 2026
For more information and list of Exhibitors with some pictures of the layouts, refer to the Exhibitions page.
Where we will be exhibiting this year: –
Lincolnsfield Open Days
The next Open Day is on Sunday 30th April and we always hope to have at least two layouts up and running to show to visitors. Volunteers are requested to add their names to the attendance sheet on the club notice board for availability to ‘man’ the clubhouse on the open days.
Prospective Spring exhibition in North Watford
We are liaising with the organisers of a prospective Model Railway Exhibition at Christchurch, St Alban’s Road, North Watford on Saturday 23rd May. We will add more details when we have agreed which of our layouts we will take. In any case, keep the date free if you would like to attend and operate one of them.
Outside Exhibitions
Where we are going with or layouts is listed on the diary page. The first one is in mid-February, where we will be taking Silverbury to the East Beds Exhibition in Biggleswade.
Trip to Alexandra Palace
Following last years’ excursion, we will be organising a club members’ outing to the London Festival of Railway Modelling at Alexandra Palace on Sunday 22nd March. This will be pre-paid for entry and minibus. If you would like to add your name to the list of those going, please contact a member of the committee.
‘Back to Basics’ sessions
These are aimed at beginners who want to broaden their knowledge but as there are a wide range of topics (such is our hobby) many members may like to attend 1 or 2 of the sessions.
The format will be in groups of 3-4 and will include a ‘have a go’ section where attendees can ‘get their hands dirty’. Sessions can be repeated if numbers interested exceed the small group size, so no one will miss out.
More sessions will be arranged according to demand.
