ABRAIL 2026 – the Abingdon Model Railway Show
ROADSIDE ADVERTISING POSTERS
Following the closing of the ABRAIL show, we will be removing the roadside posters as soon as practically possible. The removal is done entirely by volunteers in their free time and will take a few days to complete. Please bear with us during this time.
ABRAIL 2026 was held on the 7th and 8th March and was very well received by exhibitors and visitors.

Other shows
DIDCOT 2025 was held on Saturday 4th October and saw over 500 visitors enjoy the 14 delightful layouts in the Didcot Civic Hall.
ABRAIL2025 was a great success – details at ABRAIL2025
The rest of 2026 is shaping up to be an exciting one – we are hosting a Club open day on 28th March where visitors will be welcomed to our club rooms and to see the facilities and layouts we have. Send a message through our contact us form if you would like to attend. We will also be returning to Didcot in October for our small, but perfectly formed, Autumn exhibition at the Civic Hall. We look forward to seeing you.
2024 was a great year for the club. We held two exhibitions:
DIDCOT24 on Saturday 31st August our Autumn show. A smaller show than ABRAIL but still bursting with quality layouts and traders.
ABRAIL24 2nd/3rd March at Abingon & Witney College was so much fun. Follow “our exhibitions” link below for details of all our exhibitions. If you missed it, then follow the links below for some tasty videos of the show.
