Welcome to the Hampton Court Model Railway Society's 28th model railway show, 'Tolworth Showtrain 2018', covers three halls of the Tolworth Recreation Centre and features 25 working layouts covering both a variety of scales, time-periods and locations, with superb modelling and entertaining operation, including one where children can drive the trains, along with comprehensive Trade support, including several new this year. There are also demonstrators who will give hands on tuition in modelling skills.
This is your opportunity to try your hand at something new, age will be no barrier to this, and you will probably have something to take away. The show takes place on the centenary of the Armistice which ended the Great War and in recognition of this, a special feature this year is two layouts portraying the part played by railways on the Western Front during the conflict. The show's aim to provide entertainment for everyone, not just the dedicated enthusiast.
On SUNDAY one Child will be admitted FREE with every paying Adult. There is a free Bus link from Surbiton station which is served by South Western Railway services. The timetable will be available on the website in early October. Several TfL bus services stop within 10 minutes walk of the show. The show is fully accessible with everything being at ground level.
