We're excited to invite you to showcase your work at our upcoming August Exhibition! This is a great opportunity to share the model railway hobby with the wider community, featuring layouts of all sizes and prototypes from around the world. We welcome both completed layouts and those in progress that highlight the design and construction process.
Please email the club’s Layouts Manager with your layout specifications, dimensions, and a few photos.
A fantastic opportunity to buy or sell model trains, accessories, or train-related items. The stall is always popular and well-attended.
If you'd like to offer items for sale, please contact the club at the above email address at least one week prior to the exhibition for more details.
The exhibition, held annually on the second full weekend of August, highlights the activities of the Marklin Modellers of Sydney model railway club. A diverse range of model layouts, representing various prototypes and scales, will be on display to captivate railway enthusiasts of all interests.
