Thank you for posting the link ..... amazing out back room for trains ...
...from the video seems like the owner did not share his hobby / passion / obsession...with others ... I always thought sharing with others was the best part ....

Neat stuff all right! How did you like the Garratts on the wall shelves? The blue colored "Big Boy" one stood out during that long pan shot, but later closeups showed two others above; all seem to be versions of the Australian standard gauge "double northern" which was the only Garratt of that wheel arrangement ever built. (4-8-4 + 4-8-4.)

Hello all

here is a link to a few photos 278 out of 11,000 items (out of a collection of 20,000 pieces ...9000 floating around ..that is quite a few train auctions waiting in the wings) ..It's a start ..inventory done in style only a museum can do ....everything little thing is treated the same ...rock or diamond ...tag and photo done by non train folks ...their ( lack) of passion for the subject is evident ..but their ability to copy and paste info found on the web superb.

1 gauge to N gauge ...and a few O gauge in between



this link

https://www.qt.com.au/news/secret-model ... i/3138421/

starts out with a short video of the curator ...describing Marsden Williams as enthusiastic about trains ..never mentioned obsessed....
check photo inventory for 10 1 gauge crocodiles.....swim carefully

Cheers Carey
