Visitors make tracks to Ayrshire museum for model railway show

Over 1000 visitors made tracks to the  Kilmarnock and District Model Railway Club exhibition at Irvine’s  Scottish Maritime Museum at the weekend.

People of all ages enjoyed a collection of models presented by members of KDMRC as they celebrated their 50th anniversary.

There were also displays by visiting  clubs, Dundee Model Railway Club, Renfrewshire Model Railway Club and  Kyle Model Railway Club.

Children also had fun with lots of  Thomas the Tank themed games and activities, ‘driving’ Thomas the Tank  and following a Thomas the Tank trail.

Eva Bukowska, Scottish Maritime Museum  visitor services assistant manager, said: “This weekend’s Kilmarnock  and District Model Railway Club event was an overwhelming success. It  was wonderful to see so many people enjoying the models particularly as  it is the club’s 50th anniversary and their first event in two years.”
