To carry the question a step further, has anybody considered building a large scale railway, indoors or in the garden, based on John Allen's Gorre & Daphetid?  Beautiful mountain scenery, various bridge designs (John loved bridges), prototype operation, etc.  In the Lynn Westcott book, Model Railroading with John Allen, originally published by Kalmbach, John mentions that the closest prototype railroad that came close to the GD Lines, was the celebrated standard gauge Colorado Midland! Though gone for almost 100 years, the CM still has many dedicated fans.  Their unusual Hanrahan reefers were unique with center ice loading  bunkers and a beautiful color scheme which included a full sized Ute Indian on the car sides.  LGB released a CM reefer in two colors.  Both are incorrect for the Hanrahan design and not painted reefer yellow.  A pity!  Item: Santa Fe also rostered Hanrahan's and CM's were probably found on their roster due to the fact AT&SF controlled CM during the 1890s.
