MODEL RAILROAD EXHIBITORS
Association of Young Villersois
The Association des Jeunes Villersois has had a model making center for 9 years. Two disciplines are offered: model railways and model ships.

During this exhibition, the Association des Jeunes Villersois will bring out its 15 meters long network, already presented in 2017 and 2019! A realization in 1/87th scale (HO) starting from the station of Dives-sur-Mer. The trains cross several sites: the golf course and the beach of Houlgate, the church and the station of Gonneville-Saint-Vaast, the station in its pre-war configuration of Villers-sur-Mer, the station and the marsh of Blonville-sur-Mer, to finally arrive at the terminal station of Deauville-Trouville.
For the very first time, the model of the children of the club will be presented! A realization of a dimension of 1m by 1m75.
On the Villare floor, the AJV will bring a 1m20 by 2m50 railroad layout that can be driven by the children, to get their train driver diploma!
Chemin de fer de la Chapelle
The Chemin de Fer de la Chapelle Club brings together enthusiasts of building and driving model trains at La Chapelle-en-Serval, in Picardy. Patrick Picard will bring his train layout, measuring 5.80 x 2 meters, on a scale of 1/43.5e (O), with three tracks, level crossings and sheet metal stations, which takes you back to the 1950s and pre-war period.

Association of Railway Computer Simulation Enthusiasts
Created in 2005, the Association des Passionnés de la Simulation Ferroviaire par l'Informatique (Association of Railway Computer Simulation Enthusiasts) aims to promote the discovery of railway computer simulation through various and varied events. Vladimir Boire, president of the association and his colleagues will bring five train simulators for virtual driving initiations!

French Federation of Model Railroading
The French Federation of Model Railroading gathers the associations of model railroaders. Four major national associations are also associated: AFAN, AMFI, Cercle du Zéro and GEMME. The common thread of its history and its creators is to develop model railroading in France.

Gérard Lorant will present his railroad layout "The Villers Valley Railway", a 4 x 1.50 meter layout, in 1/48 scale. This layout is an imaginary version of the railroads that were built in the United States around 1880 in an economical way with a 3 feet gauge (914 mm). They were used to transport materials for the prolific silver mines in Colorado in the late 19th century. With its digital driving, the layout engages the public in the joy of the sound animation of steam locomotives typical of the American West!
Amicale des Modélistes Ferroviaires Indépendants
The Amicale des Modélistes Ferroviaires Indépendants is an association that allows isolated amateurs to exchange on different techniques at all scales and on all practices of their discipline. Jacques Brazille, member of AMFI, will bring his train layout in two scales: 1/160th (N) and 1/220th (Z). This playful network of 1.20 x 0.70 meters is equipped with an on-board camera with transmission of images on a TV screen and virtual reality helmet.

A unique experience for children to immerse themselves in the cab and graduate as train drivers!
The Circle of Zero
The " Zero " is the name of the model railroading in the scale of 1/43,5. Born in 1982 from the will of several amateurs impassioned by the railway models in the scale of 1/43,5, the Circle of the Zero gave itself as first preoccupation to revitalize this scale and to promote it.

The Cercle du Zéro is a full member of the Fédération Française de Modélisme Ferroviaire and of MOROP: European Federation of Model Railroaders and Friends of Railways. These two memberships ensure them a recognition in France and in Europe.
Didier Préd'homme and his team will present a new set of modules called "modules 3800", replacing the "modules 4000" already exhibited at Villare in 2018. A new network to discover with 5 trains running on a single track with a total length of 15 meters.
Jean-Michel Lalardie - Independent
Jean-Michel Lalardie will present his modular network "Le Bourg" in N scale, representing a passenger station, a freight station and the beginning of a village.
This network to AFAN and MOROP standards includes two standardized modules of 1m20 by 40 cm, with two returns of 40 cm by 65 cm, one of which with the TCO, and two rear slides of 1m20 by 20 cm, forming a total of 3m40 by 65 cm.
