As well as model railway layouts in scales from 2mm to 16mm to the foot, there were model trade suppliers, a wide range of local craft and similar stalls, a 100% prize-winning tombola, with prizes donated by local businesses and individuals, The Fire Brigade, St Johns Ambulance, ice creams, hot and cold drinks ...

Organised and supported by local L&B supporters, and those from further afield (some brought their layouts from the Isle of Wight) all proceeds from the show are going towards the L&BR Trust's plans for extending the line.
