Our annual model railway weekend returns for 2026 with more layouts, traders and miniature live steam! This year’s exhibition will see the museum filled with a mixture of O, OO and N gauge layouts and traders.🚂 Outside the museum, there’ll be miniature steam train rides on the 7 ¼” railway and plenty of action on the ‘big’ railway too! On Saturday, there’ll be the chance to ride on a ‘train set’-style consist – a train made up of a mixture of carriages and freight wagons.
This year’s show is being organised in partnership with the Blyth & Tyne Model Railway Club, who are holding their exhibition, ‘RailEx NE’, on the same weekend this year.
🎟️ Joint ticketing options will be available to allow entry into both exhibitions and a free shuttle bus will be running between the museum and RailEx NE at The Parks Sports Centre. More information available soon!
Exhibition runs 10am – 4pm both days. Charge to enter the exhibition.
