Risex is our smaller family exhibition, where we offer a fun day out for the family with a good selection of interesting layouts with a few traders offering ready to run models, books and specialist components. We also have a great second hand stall.
The exhibition is held at the community centre in Princes Risborough, now called the Wades Centre. Further details can be found here.
Railex is our large finescale exhibition, where the quality of layouts is paramount, along with a great selection of traders for our visitors to buy their next models from.
The exhibition is held at the large bowls hall at Stoke Mandeville stadium in Aylesbury. Please find below a link to our promotional YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQ2n0W0edn0&t=12s

The club organises three exhibitions each year, Railex, Risex and Haddenham, and opens its doors to members of the public for our annual open day where people can come and see what we do. We have also joined in Princes Risborough Festival which we call Festirail normally held in the summer.
With our Open days we allow the public to visit on a day where we can show prospective members what we get up to. In support of the Risborough Festival, we hosted our Open Day Saturday 24th June 2023, at St. Mary’s Hall, Church Street in Princes Risborough. Our Open Day is an informal event where you can talk about railways, models, and modelling techniques. It partly featured one of our club layouts as well as demonstrations and displays of club member’s projects and a second hand stall selling rolling stock, scenic accessories, books, and magazines. Details of next year's Open Day will be posted in due course.
