It will be open from 10am to 4.30pm on Sunday, July 30, and will feature an impressive 18 layouts, as well as displays plus trade support. There will be standard gauge and miniature train rides working scale model railways and gauges from N to G including modern and vintage manufacturers.

The event is taking place at Horsehay Village Hall and Telford Steam Railway. One ticket covers entry to all but the miniature railway. The two sites are a few hundred metres walk apart.

Admission prices are set at £12 for adults, £8 for children and £30 for families.
