Don’t freight, the Sunbury Model Railway Exhibition on October 15 and 16 is on track to be a rail-ly good time.
From 10am until 5pm on Saturday and 10am to 4pm on Sunday, the train-themed festivities at St Anne’s Church Hall on Riddell Road in Sunbury will thrill local miniature train aficionados.
Sunbury Model Railway Club president Robin Bootle said the exhibition will showcase models and layouts members of the club have built themselves.
“These layouts are based on different countries like Australian, European, American and British,” Mr Bootle said.
“There will also be several retailers, so those who wish can purchase products at the show.”
He said patrons will be able to watch models in action, as well as ask how things are created and operate.
“There will be some members making models at the show so patrons can see how they are made,” Mr Bootle said.
“The retailers at the show can also recommend good starting guides and will provide these items for sale.”
Tickets are $10 for adults, $5 for children and $25 for families, with refreshments available.
