Camden’s Model Railway Club will open its doors for a one-day exhibition, 'London’s Transport in Miniature,' on Sunday 6 September 2026. The event, running from 11am to 4pm, will display intricate model railway layouts, including a fictional interwar reimagining of Copenhagen Fields. The club has partnered with the London Underground Railway Society for the exhibition.
Visitors will see scaled-down versions of London’s transport network, with particular attention to detail in the Copenhagen Fields layout. The model includes street trams running along Caledonian Road and Piccadilly line stations at York Road and Caledonian Road. Other layouts, such as Waddesdon Manor and Carlton Vale, will also be on display.

The attention to detail in the layouts, including fictional and semi-fictional London scenes, has been praised by visitors in the past.
