Rotary Newton Aycliffe and our partners at Shildon Model Railway Club will be presenting their second annual model railway exhibition on Saturday 17 June 2023 at Bishop Middleham Village Hall, Front St, Bishop Middleham DL17 9AJ with the doors opening at 10am.
The beneficiary charities this year are St Michael’s Church, Parkinson’s Disease Research and Rotary Charities.
There will be over 9 working layouts in scales from ‘N’ to ‘0’ (that is quite small to very big!) from some of this country’s very best modellers as well as 3 trade stands selling model railway equipment both new and ‘pre-loved’. A Thomas layout for the children (young and old) to drive, as well as our fantastic ‘everyone a winner’ Tombola and our usual and famous catering with the fantastic bacon butties and vegetarian options. Layouts have been gathered from across the Northeast, and down to Humberside, including a vintage 1950’s Trix Twin example.
Entry is £4 for adults, accompanied children (under 16) and wheelchair users are free. Parking is free but visitors from the local area are advised to use bus service 113 from Ferryhill and Sedgefield which stops at the venue.
Further information can be obtained from the organiser John Burrows 07870 210269.
