Exhibiting

As a seasoned modeller with previous exhibition experience I am happy to offer my layouts or modelling demonstrations to exhibition managers. Please contact me via the 'Contact Form' in the menu.

Each of these models have appeared extensively on my blog, and a number have featured in the wider modelling press including Railway Modeller, British Railway Modelling, Continental Modeller and Narrow Gauge World. I stand and present from the side of the layout, inviting visitors to engage with the subject and sharing information on their construction, inspiration or prototype, encouraging young and old with their own hobby.
