    Hello everyone, Wexford Model Railway Club CLG is pleased to announce that it is planning for a one-day Autumn Exhibition on Sunday 8th October 2023. Invitations will issue shortly but feel free to contact us if you have a model railway layout that you keen to show to a discerning audience!

    Worth a try. Unfortunately, Richard Marsh is no longer supplying the shunter's pole. I have found these very effective with my new O Gauge layout "Buffers Lock" shown at the Wexford May Exhibition and booked for the Belfast Exhibition in August 2023.

    See you on Sunday 8th October 2023 so : -)

    Oops! My typo - should be Sunday 8th October 2023.

    Many thanks for your kind comments. WMRC have strived since 2009 to run two exhibitions a year and learn from each one what works well.

    Carlsberg don't do Model Railway Exhibitions, but if they did...

    I am honoured that "Buffers Lock" was awarded Best Layout - the Jim Kearns Memorial Award - at its debut exhibition in Wexford!

    Thanks to everyone who came along. We had an excellent turnout and people were more than generous with their donations. Looking forward to doing it all again on the 9th October 2023 for a one day event!

    A few views of the debutante at the Wexford MRC Exhibition 2023: This is the first time all four boards were up together (insufficient room at home) but it provided a learning curve for mimicking prototypical operations. BTW great turnout for the show and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves.
