We like to think our exhibition, on or about the last weekend of September, compares well with others in the North West. In addition to having a good mix of exhibits, trade stands and displays for the mainly family-based visitors, we try to look after our exhibitors and traders as well as we can, as without them nothing happens.
Exhibition manager Tony, ably assisted by secretary Alan and dog Pebble, plan up to three years in advance to create the event.
We have been fortunate in having a good venue in Meols Cop High School, but we have outgrown it and from 2008 we will be at a new location:
Birkdale High School.
An addition to a wide variety of layouts, there are a number of traders selling rolling stock, layout construction materials, memorabilia, videos, etc., and a good selection of railway society stands. There is also a cafe and, weather permitting, live steam train rides courtesy of Southport Model Engineers. The show guide is included in the admission price.
