We are pleased to announce that Ffarquhar Branch will be joining us at the Bluebell Railway Model Railway Weekend this June.
This is a rare opportunity to see one of the most influential and historically important model railway layouts in Britain.
For 2026, the Model Railway Weekend will take place across two of the Bluebell Railway’s principal stations — Sheffield Park and Horsted Keynes. By spreading the event across both sites, visitors will be able to enjoy a significantly expanded programme featuring a wide variety of model railway layouts, displays, and demonstrations, all set within the unique heritage surroundings of the railway. Each station will offer its own selection of attractions, encouraging visitors to explore more of the line and experience the event in full.
Admission is included with any travel ticket, or platform tickets can be purchased giving admission to the exhibition
