[xx(]) about that letter. Even if it is attached to the will, it may not be part of that legal document. Best bet is to put your trains into the will directly as a bequest to whoever will become the caretaker of the railroad. Even better, pass them along to whoever now, by drafting a letter to that person giving them joint legal ownership of the layout and all its equipment and appurtenances. [8D] This should also take them out of the realm of your estate, and reduces any estate tax later.
