  • Virtual Exhibition
    RAILEX 2021 Virtual Exhibition Kyle of Lochalsh, photo by Chris Nevard Risborough & District Model Railway Club Welcome to Railex 2021 It is disappointing that for the second year in a row, we are not able to hold Railex in the flesh so to speak. However, we hope this virtual show goes some way to compensate. In the best traditions of Railex past, we believe we have brought you a fine selection of layouts to view online. We feature many of the layouts that were booked for 2020 and 2021. Please see these as an appetiser as we intend to invite as many of these layouts as possible to the next couple of live Railex shows. In addition, this year we are featuring several home layouts of club members that never go on the exhibition circuit. As well as the usual list of Traders who traditionally attend our show, we have expanded the line-up to include other quality outlets for whom we don't normally have room. Please enjoy browsing amongst them. This year, as a first for us, we are hosting some demonstrations - some are prerecorded and can be viewed at any time and 4 will be live today with an opportunity for questions and answers afterwards - see the timetable on the Railex Show front page. Lockdown has reputedly attracted a large number of new followers to the hobby. If this is you, we hope you enjoy the section devoted to expanding your horizons and see what modern technology can do to enhance your pleasure. Finally, I hope you enjoy the show and we really look forward to welcoming you in person at Stoke Mandeville in 2022.

This site is one of several hundred designed landscapes county‐wide identified by Bucks County Council (BCC) in 1998 (including Milton Keynes District) as potentially retaining evidence of historic interest, as part of the Historic Parks and Gardens Register Review project carried out for English Heritage (now Historic England) (BCC Report No. 508). The list is not definitive and further parks and gardens may be identified as research continues or further information comes to light. Content BGT has taken the Register Review list as a sound basis from which to select sites for appraisal as part of its Research and Recording Project for designed landscapes in the historic county of Bucks (pre‐1974 boundaries). For each site a dossier is prepared by volunteers trained on behalf of BGT by experts in appraising designed landscapes who have worked extensively for English Heritage/Historic England on its Register Upgrade Project. Each dossier includes the following for the site: A site boundary mapped on the current Ordnance Survey to indicate the extent of the main part of the surviving designed landscape, also a current aerial photograph.
