NRS Railway Show

The Norfolk Railway Society will hold its annual ‘NRS Show’ at Wymondham Central Hall on Saturday 7th March.

Around 12 layouts will be on display, in a variety of gauges and scales to intrigue both the beginner and the experienced modeller. N scale (2mm to 1ft) railways are designed to fit in the smallest spaces, and ‘Loch Finnan’, built to this scale, has a Scottish theme. Several layouts constructed to the ever-popular 00 scale (4mm to 1 ft) will include a rarely-seen model of Acle station and one which depicts the Great Central line in the British Railways era. Larger again, in 0 scale (7mm to 1ft), is a model representing a London Transport steam depot. There will even be an elaborate layout crafted from Lego.

“Full-size” railways won’t be left out, with displays from several of our local heritage lines such as the Mid-Norfolk and North Norfolk. Sales stands will feature a wide range of railway books, both new and secondhand, and an artist who specialises in railway subjects.

The show will be open from 10:30 am to 4.30pm. Admission is £4.00, with reductions for children and families. Refreshments will be available.
