Contest Information

To enter a model in the Modelling Contest you will need to fill out a Model Entry Form for each model and fill out the Judging Form with the details of how you built the model and the materials used.

There is no limit to the number of models you may enter, but, consider leaving room for other modellers! Filling out the paperwork BEFORE you arrive at the convention would be a great help to other modellers, the organisers, and yourself.

You can find all the requirements on the Model Contest Page and on the Photo Contest Page

There will be a Rick Shoup Award for the Best Model Of Australasian Prototype. This model can be a loco, rolling stock or structure. The choice is yours.

There will be a John Baker Award for the best Model Of American Prototype. This model can be a loco, rolling stock or structure. The choice is yours.

Additionally, attaining a point score of 87.5 pts. or 70%, entitles the entrant to a Merit Award which counts towards Master Builder Awards in the NMRA Achievement Program.

If you require any information, please contact the contest chair.
