Hello Everyone. I hope you are all keeping well? I regret to inform you that we will not be holding our model show at Fort Pitt School, Chatham on Saturday 3 & Sunday 4 September 2022 - due to unforeseen circumstances. We apologise for the disappointment this will cause and confirm that the decision to cancel at this late stage was not taken lightly. We hope to be back in September 2023, so keep watching for updates. In the meantime, the Gravesend Railway Enthusiasts Society will be holding their exhibition in Northfleet School for Girls on 5 & 6 November 2022. Check out their page for more details, available shortly. Look after yourselves. Best wishes, Ella

Hello Everyone, we hope you are all still keeping safe and well at this time. We have tentative approval for a return to Fort Pitt School, Chatham on Saturday 4 and Sunday 5 September this year subject to all continuing to go well between now and then. So please add those dates to your diary and we hope to see you again over the first weekend of September. We can tell you that our favourite double-act, Derek Smith and Noel Dollimore, plan to bring their new layouts, Greg Marshall plans to enthrall us with a layout featuring Tramlink and GRES plan to bring their upgraded and expanded model of Gravesend West station. Plus, many of our usual traders have already signed up ready to charm you with bargains galore... We will keep you posted on developments over the coming months, so watch this space and stay safe. Best wishes, Ella

Hello, I hope you are all keeping safe and well at this time. As you know, we should have been looking forward to another weekend of fun and entertainment at Fort Pitt School, Chatham in just under two weeks on 5 & 6 September. However, I am sure you are now aware we have had to cancel our Model Railway Show for 2020 and hope we'll be able to meet up again in 2021. In the meantime, attached are the photos from 2019 that I said I would share with you including photos of the award winning layout - Habbaniya, Iraq 1941 . Stay safe! Best wishes, Ella 😀

Just a quick note to thank all those who came to the Medway Model Show in September. What a great time we had - and I'll share photos soon. In the meantime, don't forget GRES will be holding their model railway exhibition this coming weekend at Northfleet School for Girls and it looks like being a great collection of railway layouts, traders and societies. There will be 4DDs and A load of Balls! Ella

And we have yet more exciting news! Not only have we got Laurie Calvert displaying his excellent science fiction layout Cato Pass but also its little brother Scallywag Corner. Also, Gravesend Railway Enthusiasts Society will be showing the beginnings of their new Layout, Gravesend West, based on the real second station in Gravesend closed in 1968. It is certainly worth seeing and can only get better! We also have Midhurst, a large Southern Region based OO scale layout, Paddington based on the London terminus plus Habbaniya, Iraq - an image in time that is simply amazing! And loads more... So come on down, you'll be in for a treat...😀

Hello All, with just over one week to go I wanted to give you some more news about the Medway Model Railway Show on 7 & 8 September. First of all, attached is the timetable for our bus service to/from Fort Pitt Grammar School on both days. Not only will we be serving the Royal Engineers Museum for those of you who wish to go to the Medway Model Show - also on the same weekend - but we'll also be driving up Canal Road to properly serve Strood station!

With just over six months to go, things are coming together well for the Medway Model Show on 7 & 8 September 2019. We have a good number of layouts not seen at this show before, and three of these will be: Habbaniya, Iraq 1941, Medway Quay and Medway Quay. We aim to have a bus service on both days linking the model railway show with local railway stations, and we may even have not one but two little DT Dennis Dart buses. Look out for more news over the coming weeks.
