Over 40 model railways will be on display at the British Motor Museum as the Great British Model Railway Show returns at the end of October.

The dedicated weekend (October 28-29) will also see up to 30 specialist traders and 10 demonstrators head to the South Warwickshire venue.

And there will be a free shuttle bus from Leamington Spa Railway Station on the day.

The model railway exhibition will follow the Large Model Aircraft Show which returns on Sunday 22 October, when visitors can see over 100 large static radio controlled model aircraft.

Organised by the Large Model Association, the popular family show also has specialist traders selling everything in model aircraft building, from miniature propellers to small jet engines and pre-assembled models, including WW1, WW2, jets and other types of model aircraft.

Tom Caren, show manager at the British Motor Museum, said: "Both model shows are hugely popular and enjoyed by so many.

"The shows are ideal for families who are looking for something a bit different to do with their children.

"You can admire the range of static models, browse the trade area to find that perfect airplane or train for your collection, and speak to builders about their projects to get some handy tips and advice.

"You might even find some inspiration for a fresh project of your own!"
