International Model Railway Day

[daffy]

With the transition from the current Lockdown in England to a revised Tier system on December 2nd dominating the news here, it is good to know that that date is also, according to a listing for an HO Märklin freight van model noted in an email today from Modellbahnshop Lippe in Germany, the 'International Model Railway Day'.

I must look this up as I've never come across it before.

Does it mean I have to buy more stock that day?  , or do I have to play trains all day? 

Hope so.

Whatever it means, just don't tell my wife...

Not sure. Better do both to be safe.

Is it just me, or does Grandad look like Bob Wilson?

 Thanks for the link

Looks like 'International' is a synonym for 'Germany and North-East Spain' in the main, but there is a page on that website of interesting links to 'Model railway systems for viewing' across the world here:
