A Redditch model railway show is set to return to the town for the 50th time this weekend.
Redditch Model Railway Club will be staging its Model Railway Exhibition on Saturday, September 16 and Sunday, September 17 at the Trinity High School on Grove Street.
More than 30 stands will be on display including high quality layouts in different scales from gauges N to 0 with some designs travelling from as far as Barnstaple, Scarborough and Liverpool.
The event will also feature railway modelling demonstrations, the award-winning exhibition layout Oakenshaw and other well-known displays including Ludlow, Southgate Park and Abberley Narrows all supported by 15 trade stands.
Exhibition manager Guy Craddock said: “This will be the 50th Redditch Model Railway Exhibition which has come a long way since the first in 1967 and each year the event is proving to be very popular with visitors who travel from all over the country to the show.
“We hope many more will visit this year’s show to help us celebrate our special anniversary and make the event even better.”
Admission to the event is £6 but free for under-16s and includes a free souvenir exhibition guide.
The exhibition will be open between 10am and 5pm on Saturday (September 16) and 10am and 4.30pm on Sunday (September 17).
