It’s back, it’s bigger, it’s better!
More space! More layouts!

 

Following the success of Manchester Model Railway Society’s relaunched city centre exhibition in 2015, the Society has today
released details of the attractions at this year’s show. The exhibition will be on

 

Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th December 2016,

 

and will again be held in the Barnes Wallis building of the
University of Manchester’s northern campus, a mere 250m from Piccadilly Station.

 

Opening times are as follows;
Saturday 10:00 - 17:30,
Sunday 10:00 - 16:30.
Advance ticket holders admitted at 09:45 each day.
Adult price £8 on the door or £7 in advance (advance ticket includes a free exhibition guide.).
Children under 5 free, children 5 - 16: two admitted free with each adult ticket, extra children £4. No unaccompanied children under 16.
Wheelchair bound visitors may bring one carer free of charge.
More exhibition space has been hired this year and, in addition, the catering area has been almost doubled in size and will
open for longer, serving a much wider variety of food throughout the day. Exhibition coordinator, Philip Sweet, said:
“We have listened carefully to the feedback from last year’s visitors
and are acting on it to make the exhibition bigger and better than
ever. In line with their wishes we have increased the exhibition
space, improved the catering and have invited more layouts – there
should be twenty this year, two more than in 2015. One thing which
has not changed is the quality of the layouts; most of them have
been featured in one or more of the national railway modelling
magazines in the last 18 months. The variety of traders this year will
be even greater and we are arranging a number of activities designed
for families and children.
With Manchester’s acclaimed Christmas street markets nearby, our
show is the perfect destination for your Christmas shopping”
The Society website contains details and pictures of all the layouts, and much
more information about the exhibition. http://mmrs.co.uk/exhibition/

Details:

Informal group who meet to run coarse O gauge trains vintage or modern, clockwork or electric 12v and 20v. Visitors may bring their own locos, rolling stock and goods wagons to run on the group’s tracks so Hornby tinplate and Bassett-Lowke may run together with modern O gauge like Ace, Darstaed, Seven Mill. Main layout has four tracks in radii 27” (Atlas) 36” (tinplate ) and 49”".5” (Atlas). Mostly 3-rail but 2-rail running possible at our Dec 19th meeting. Our larger radius Atlas track will permit some fine-scale locos such as MTH. The main layout has no points. If you have a fine-scale loco which you think will run, do bring it along. Get in touch to check track-suitability if not sure.


The venue is spectacular and is next to the 82-arch, 1.2km long Harringworth railway viaduct. Possibly the most beautiful and picturesque model railway venue in England. Legendary home-made snacks with tea/coffee etc. A warm welcome awaits. No membership is necessary. At our last meet we welcomed members from HRCA, Bassett-Lowke Society and the Gauge 0 Guild and we saw modern RTR tinplate trains running alongside Hornby rolling-stock – ANYthing O gauge is most welcome. A warm welcome awaits new visitirs.


Meets are usually bi-monthly on the fourth Monday of the month in the even-numbered months.
