Dave Meashey said:Oh, Emmett has enthusiasts here too, Dave! As a matter of fact, several FULL-SIZE sculptures he made of his cartoon trains and other inventions have their permanent home right here - including Nellie !!! They can be seen, prominently displayed in one of the inner foyers at the Ontario Science Center in Toronto. Fascinating and very much loved by the denizens of this city. Why here of all places - ah, that I do not know. I just enjoy 'em when I see 'em, and I have Googled and found pix online in the past.
John; Roland Emmett ....Far Twittering & Oyster Creek Railway. Those are perfect grist for whimsical models, and there seem to be several enthusiasts on the other side of the pond who build them.
There are a couple of guys up here who display models of Emmet’s trains at local train shows. I’m not quite there yet, but I wouldn’t kick Nellie off my own pike, if she ever visited!
