The Shillingstone Station Model Railway Exhibition will take place on 26th September 2026 at Shillingstone Church Centre, Shillingstone. Organised by the North Dorset Railway, this event will feature an exhibition of model railways of all gauges, with 12 or more layouts on display.
The layouts will be situated both within the buildings and railway coaches at Shillingstone Station, as well as in the nearby Shillingstone Church Centre. While entry to the station and its layouts will be free, there will be a charge to visit the layouts in the Church Centre. Visitors can access the Church Centre from the station via a footpath, although this path is not suitable for those with mobility issues and may be bumpy for pushchairs.
Proceeds from the event will be used to support and develop the North Dorset Railway. Refreshments will be available, and there is free parking on site.
