Small industrial #modelrailway (former) junction named locally after the pub. Modelling a micro layout in OO gauge. #TMRGUK #BMRGUK
Pinned
The scene, a blank; the day, a dream;
The joy, a spectral wreath.
We’ve left the spot, it would seem,
Forever. Gone the summer’s breath.

Reevo, the landlord of The Idler of Tangier pub, once again has organised a pub crawl (of sorts) called ‘The Christmas Pudding’. This year he even bought a headboard. There is some food available on board, but people are mainly leaving room for the beer, sherry and whiskey. 🎄🍺🥃 #bsmrguk

So, I’ve been super busy of late, but it was good to get the layout moving again this evening just in time for Christmas! 🎄 #bsmrguk

The railway lines that surround The Idler of Tangier pub once formed a junction, but the southern spur was lifted in the mid-1950s. The primary industry now is the rapidly declining R.G. Steadman and Co. Pottery Works which takes delivery of china clay once a week. #BSMRGUK #TMRGUK

Can't believe there's no model railway / #TMRGUK / #BSMRGUK starter pack on here yet - unless I've missed it?

Well if I did, there's now two, as I've done one! go.bsky.app/6htXddd

Very much a first stab - who's missing? New people are coming over all the time, so recommendations please!
