Wow! Impressive layouts Looks like a museum...and it is all so squeaky clean!
Wonder when we will see those models on Stout...may take about 15 auctions.

Re: Crikey!!!
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.)

1 gauge to N gauge ...and a few O gauge in between
this link
https://www.qt.com.au/news/secret-model ... i/3138421/
