Some photos taken (I think) last year at the late WArd Kimball's Grizzly Flats RR in Cal.. Anyone know what will happen to the rest of his 1:1 scale collection now that he is gone?

It was my belief, especially after reading the L&RP article on the railroad, that the entire collection, depot and all would eventually end up at Orange Empire. Anybody from OERM know for sure?

The rail equipment was gifted to Orange Empire years ago, but the little Hawaiian engine was allowed to remain at the Ward family house for the family to use.

The depot has recently been discussed; this was originally built as a movie set and does not meet current building requirements. At this time, this is all that I will mentioned.

No information about other full-size artifacts.

I have heard that the toy trains will be offered though a major auction house.
