Brighton Modelworld - 2012


This year, BRMRC attended the this prestigious show with one of our older, but nonetheless excellent layouts - South Preston. This is a British Railways (Southern Region) branch line layout based loosely on Littlehampton, as operated in the 1950's and 1960's. Despite its long break from exhibition duties with a little fettling it did well and proved very popular.

This show, with its 3 day span, always makes it difficult to ensure we have sufficient operators but our members came up trumps and visitors could rely on seeing some action!

Modelworld is a unique exhibition showcasing models of all types from around the country. The show is now in it’s 34th year. Having started out as a model railway show it now encompasses so much more and has become genuinely a family model show with something for children of all ages, 1-100.
