As usual our venue remains the excellent St Anselm's School for Girls on New Dover Road, Canterbury, about 100 yards down the hill from the New Dover Road Park and Ride Facility.
The show is held over two halls and boasts plenty of free parking, disabled access, very good hot and cold food at very reasonable prices and a cornucopia of model railway layouts and a good selection of traders.
As always we have tried to balance the use of space available to us to provide ample room for movement in the aisles. If you are disabled and require assistance, one of our many friendly and helpful show stewards will be happy to help.
We welcome families with small children but politely ask parents to keep their charges under control and not allow them to touch the models. We provide hop-ups, for smaller enthusiasts to view the layouts, which are available in the main entrance for a small refundable deposit.
For those attending whose wives, girlfriends, partners etc do not share your enthusiasm for all things railway-related, we suggest you use the park and ride carpark. You can park all day and have unlimited use of the park and ride buses for a very reasonable £2 and they can go into Canterbury city centre to enjoy the sales.
Layouts booked are;
Westcliff, Harton Gill, Loughborough, Gravel Bottom, Ravens Rock, Tan y Bwlch,
Abbots Barton, Mariaholtz Klabondorf, St Laurent en Ardennes, Nevermoor,
Windsor GWR (Colorado), Chillingbourne, Belmont Road, Hayeseden, Wansbeck Road,
Traders booked are;
Euroscale Models, The Signal Box (Rochester), Woodpecker Books, N Gauge Lines,
East Kent Railway, Engine Shed Toys, Ray Morris, Dave's Railway Films,
Kent Garden Railways, Realistic Modelling Services, Modeller's Mate, Harbour Heights,
Railway Correspondence and Travel Society, Carriage and Wagon Models, David Wills,
