Join us at the National Slate Museum for a steam-filled spectacular in our Model Railway Show. There's loads of activities to enjoy during the show including free rides for children on miniature steam engines and trains. There’s daily demonstrations, talks, and various engines and layouts of all shapes and sizes on display - from 00mm to 32mm gauge engines. Big, small, real or model – all types of engines are on show, and don’t forget to bring your own 00 gauge trains and have a go on the children's test track layout! The National Slate Museum has a lively interest in rail heritage. Narrow gauge railways were fundamental to slate quarrying operations, and the museum’s own collections include the quarry steam engine UNA.
