Yesterday I popped along to the Beckenham & West Wickam Model Railway Show and I was greeted with a whole host of amazing layouts! While the big exhibitions are fun, you do often start to see the same old layouts after a while . That's where smaller, more local exhibitions can be really exciting as you tend to find model railways you've never seen before and it can ignite a new spark of inspiration for the hobby. This particular exhibition had everything ranging from a large O Gauge model railway to a small boxful layout and I certainly came away from this model rail show with a few ideas for future layouts!
Layouts:
Bletchinghurst
Canute Road Quay
Cedar Court Wagon Yard
Clayton West
Durston
Elbow Lane
Filebox Junction
Hazelcombe
Hemlock
Mitchford Park
Rossiter Rise
Ruffles Road
Selborne
Scrapworth End
The Yard
Universal Vintage 00
Thanks for watching! 🚂

Hi and thanks for posting this. I was there too and it really was a good event. There were some great displays and the tiny T Gauge model railway was astonishing; 1:450 scale!

Yeah it was nice varied event... even the T Gauge display has got me thinking! Thanks for watching 😃

It was my first time attending but it was a really good show! I sometimes prefer these smaller more local exhibitions to the massive ones like Ally Pally or Warley. Thanks for watching 😃

Yeah the sheer length of the O Gauge layout was incredible - seeing a train approach from a distance in such a large scale is really special. Thanks for watching 😃

Beautiful exhibition. Really enjoyed the SR USA tank at around 5:20. Sure wish we had a virtual model. You know, I've used the sim for 20 years, but there's just something special about a real model railway that the sim can't do. This video shows that quality. The GWR layout at 7:40 or so, too.

@ThatModelRailwayGuy 9 ай бұрын

Yes there's definitely something about having a physical miniature world at your fingertips that is really special! Thanks for watching 😃

Hi Leonard, all the music is stuff I write specifically for the channel so a lot of it isn't named. Thanks for watching 😃

Missed it to. Why on earth put the exhibition on outside of the area?

@ThatModelRailwayGuy 9 ай бұрын

I believe it was for a bigger venue so they could have more space. It wasn’t exactly far away from their usual area though. Thanks for watching 👍

@redvalley9 9 ай бұрын

It was only around the corner to me so missed the banner outside the venue which always reminded me. Are you around Beckenham? @@ThatModelRailwayGuy

@EbsworthStreet 9 ай бұрын

@redvalley9 the reason I took it out the area was due to old venue issues. Plus as I am new exhibition manager of the show. I wanted to make it bigger and better show with more transport links for people.

When are you posting your next layout update 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

@ThatModelRailwayGuy 9 ай бұрын

The simple answer is: when the editing is done. There's over 30hrs of footage to sort through so you can imagine it takes a while, especially given than this isn't my full time job.
