ExpoNG is the familiar name for ‘Expo Narrow Gauge®’, the model railway exhibition dedicated to modelling narrow gauge railways in all their forms. Held annually at the end of October by the Greenwich and District Narrow Gauge Railway Society in Swanley, England, it is the premier specialist Narrow Gauge railway modelling event held in the UK and probably the biggest in Europe. It includes narrow gauge model railway layouts and models in all major scales, traders and manufacturers from the UK, Europe and the USA, modelling and prototype societies, as well as demonstrations of modelling techniques.

Dave Brewer Memorial Challenge
The theme of the 2010 Challenge is a model of rolling stock of one gauge being carried upon stock of a different gauge. For example, a standard gauge wagon on a narrow gauge transporter wagon.
- One of the vehicles must be narrow gauge, defined as less than 4 ft 81/2 ins, the other vehicle can be narrow gauge, standard gauge or broad gauge. The two gauges must be different.
- The scale of the models can be whatever the builder chooses, up to a maximum of G or 16 mm scale.
- The models can be scratch or kit built, but not ready to run. However, commercial parts can be used in constructing the models.
