Couldn't agree more kev, last time I went I spent absolutely ages just looking at the GND tractor and Road Loco in the top corner, I would personally rather see them preserved as they are than bulled up on a rally field devoid of all their original patina and character. It would however be nice if all the engines could be lined up in one hall with access all the way around them, and all the Christmas crap shoved in another room...
