Let's see....
An LGB 2017 0-4-0 w/ power tender
An Aristo C-16 2-8-0 wearing a B'mann big Hauler cab
A B'mann Mining Mogul 2-6-0 wearing the C-16's cab
A heavily modified Lionel James the Red Engine 2-6-0
A heavily modified Lionel Thomas the tank engine 0-6-0T
A Holgate wooden Mr Roger's trolley w/ a Hartland motor block
A Lehmann Porter 0-4-0ST
An Accucraft Ida 0-4-0ST live steam
An On30 B'mann 0-4-0ST Porter converted to Gn15
An On30 B'mann 0-4-2ST Porter converted to Gn15
An On30 B'mann 2-6-0 mogul (actually WAS a Hawthorne Village one) converted to Gn15
My daughter has a B'mann "Hogwarts Express" that she says she'll break my fingers if I try converting to Gn15
And a 4-3/4" gauge coal fired live steam OS Engines 0-2-2 Stephenson's Rocket on top of the TV set (it actually belongs to a customer who hasn't picked it up yet.)

That's the lot, rather too many engines for a 5' x 8' tabletop loop, but I don't know which ones I'd actually WANT to part with.
