ONE of the largest model railway shows in the south west is coming to Taunton this month.
Rail-Ex Taunton 2025 will be held at Taunton School, in Staplegrove Road, over the weekend of Saturday and Sunday, October 25 and 26.
The exhibition, the latest to be held by Somerset Railway Modellers Club, is set to feature 40 layouts, chosen to showcase the highest quality modelling in the popular gauges (N gauge, OO9, HO, OO and O gauge).
A wide range of railway locations and periods of Britain’s network will be represented, as well as several layouts based on the railways of foreign countries, including Cuba, Austria and New England, organiser said.
“Many visitors to model railway exhibitions take the opportunity to buy items they need for their own home layouts, and so Rail-Ex Taunton has brought together a group of businesses who have regularly supported the show and who, between them, can supply almost anything needed to begin, enhance or complete a layout,” a spokesperson added.
“And for those who need advice there are skilled modellers who are only too happy to demonstrate their techniques and to answer questions.”
