Last weekend (4, 5 & 6 June 2011) was a long weekend here in Perth.
Paul had the morning off on the Monday so we decided to take Rhys to see the Model Railway Exhibition that was on in Perth. We had intended to go on the train but unfortunately couldn’t make the schedule work with Paul’s work so we ended up going in two cars!!!
Anyway the exhibition was super fun and there were all sorts of amazing model railways. The lego exhibit stole the show and, as you can imagine with a 5 year old in tow, the Thomas the Tank Engine exhibits were quite a draw! However, there were also more grown up varieties of model railways and we would strongly recommend a visit – it’s on every year so keep an eye out.
Here’s our video of the exhibits that caught our eye (sorry, it does go on for a bit!)
Be sure to also take a look at this post by Claire (comment below) who took some amazing photos of the exhibits.

Hi Claire – thanks for your comment and for linking to me! It was an incredible exhibition that we will visit again next year, and with luck the train will tie in with our schedule as well =)
