SIXTEEN model railway layouts will be on show when Ely and District Model Railway Club stage their annual exhibition at Ely College on Saturday May 18.

Every year this renown show attracts around 1,000 visitors, who can also enjoy live model steam train rides, and take a look at trade stands selling new and second-hand model railway equipment, scenic material, and railway books.

The model railway layouts on display come from all around the region, in various gauges, scales and periods. In a separate hall there will be a special narrow gauge display, and there will be plenty of advice from exhibitors and members.

The show is open from 10.30am to 5pm, and entry is £4 for adults, £2.50 for children, and under 5s are admitted free.
