EVERYONE'S favourite train took centre stage for visitors to Fareham and District Model Railway Club's annual exhibition.
Thomas the Tank Engine worked his magic on young and old enthusiasts alike as part of Alton Model Railway Group's display at the popular event.
But miniature train fans had plenty of other attractions to view including working layouts, static displays and demonstrations.
Collectors were also able to browse several trade stands that were selling books, videos and other railway-related gifts.
Frustrated commuters could make their point about the area's rail services to representatives of South West Trains.
Even shoppers had the chance to get a taste of the exhibition with a stand in a vacant store inside Fareham Shopping Centre.
The event marked the club's 37th anniversary and was the 32nd year they had used Fareham Community Centre.
