Model Railway Forum

Each November, the South Hants Model Railway Club hosts the annual Portsmouth Model Railway Exhibition.

Please note: The SHMRC portsmouth Exhibition is NOT connected to the Victory Club Exhibition (4th/5th April 2020).

Our venue is the Admiral Lord Nelson School on Dundas Lane, Portsmouth, between 10:30 and 16:30.

Not only is this the longest running model railway show in the area, but it is rapidly gaining a national reputation as an exhibition that shows the very best of this fascinating hobby.

Each exhibition has a carefully chosen selection of top-class model railway layouts and demonstrators. We are supported each year by a loyal band of traders and ‘gauge’ societies.

Full details of layouts, traders, demonstrators and societies, plus details of how to get there, can be found on the Club's website - https://www.shmrc.org.uk/exhibition/

PLEASE NOTE:
The Admiral Lord Nelson School is being enlarged, and pedestrian access and parking arrangements will be different this year. Please refer to the club website where information will be added and updated as we get closer to the exhibition.

A quick note to let you know about changes to our traders, and some parking information.

Unfortunately, London Road Models, Masterpiece Falcon Figures, and Frome Model Centre have had to pull out at the last minute for unavoidable personal reasons - we look forward to seeing them back in 2020.

We've been able to secure one extra trader ... Dingo Server Mounts - see the Trader page https://www.shmrc.org.uk/exhibition/exhibition-traders/ for more details.

Parking will be more difficult this year as the school is part way through some major building works. There's more information on our website Exhibition page https://www.shmrc.org.uk/exhibition/ , and we've produced a handout to help people park this year - a copy is attached to this post.

We look forward to seeing you all on Saturday - we have a cracking show this year!
