The special two-day 50th anniversary Milton Keynes Model Railway Society (MKMRS) exhibition was a great success. Held on Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th February at Stantonbury Leisure Centre, Milton Keynes, organisers were especially pleased to welcome a large number of families with children to the show as well as railway modellers from across the UK.
A vintage Routemaster bus from London, running between Milton Keynes Central rail station and the exhibition proved to be especially popular, with some services being completely full up.
MKMRS were delighted with the huge attendance and plans are already underway for next year’s show.
MKMRS Exhibition Manager, Terry Silver said:
‘We were delighted that our 50th anniversary exhibition was such a success and it was a pleasure to see so much interest from families and children, making this a really special exhibition that Milton Keynes can be proud of. It was wonderful that so many people chose to join us. We would love to hear visitors’ feedback on the show as it really helps us to plan for next year’s show.’
The society look forward to seeing everyone again at next year’s show detail of which will published here soon.
