Very nice collection and if you push them together you will fit lots more on there.

Quite a collection, and I agree you can fit more on there.

yes but since this pic was taken I have got a few more models out of the workshop and put them up there and there is room for another shelf.
If I put 1 in Ill have to make it so it can swing out so I can use me engines in bed.

That Roundhouse loco looks rather nice on the end there - But you need more locos.
What's in the safe? There can't be any cash in there after shopping at Roundhouse - maybe it's a prized steam model that is to good for us lot to see.  |

Does dry ice, a neon blue glow and angelic choral music come out from inside when you open the door?
If so - sounds like it's another Roundhouse loco inside |

Very nice Pauly, Looks really great.
Mine are now really much too close together and dominate the covered entry area. I also have a lot inside, including the Marklin on the Living Room coffee table.
I've been told to go and buy Display Cabinets.
