Fans of Meccano or those who want to relive a childhood hobby have until Friday to check out the work of local masters.
The MWT Meccano Club are displaying some of their work at Trafalgar Square this week.
Club member Viv Alexander said it had 25-30 members and was one
of the biggest in the country.
Meccano - construction sets of metal parts with nuts and bolts - was first produced in 1901 in Liverpool.
"Meccano's still being made - you can buy it in shops," Mr Alexander said.
