Model railway enthusiasts from all over the country descended on Yorkshire for the annual Festival of British Railway Modelling event.
The exhibition took over Doncaster Racecourse, and visitors could enjoy perusing a number of elaborate layouts, browse numerous trade stands and meet representatives from model clubs all over the UK.
Doncaster Model Railway Club helped to organise and steward the event, and Wensleydale Railway also sent a delegation.
