Exhibitions

The club organises three exhibitions each year, Railex, Risex and Haddenham, and opens its doors to members of the public for our annual open day where people can come and see what we do. We have also joined in Princes Risborough Festival which we call Festirail normally held in the summer.



RAILEX - Saturday 24th May, Sunday 25th May 2025

Railex is our large finescale exhibition, where the quality of layouts is paramount, along with a great selection of traders for our visitors to buy their next models from.

The exhibition will be held at the large sports hall this year, 2025, at Stoke Mandeville stadium in Aylesbury.

This year back in the Main Hall

19 Layouts and over 30 traders are booked for this year. Full details of Layouts, Traders, Societies & Demos as well as directions, travel details and exhibition pricing can be found at : https://www.railex.org.uk

Club Open Day - 12th July 2025

With our Open days we allow the public to visit on a day where we can show prospective members what we get up to. In support of the Risborough Festival, we will host our Open Day on Saturday 12th July 2025, at St. Mary’s Hall, Church Street in Princes Risborough. Our Open Day is an informal event where you can talk about railways, models, and modelling techniques.
