Having seen the state of the "collection", I'd say that there needs to
something other than just money put where the mouth is.

Stockpiling decaying rolling stock in a remote locations seems to be
a favourite activity of sections of the overall rail "preservation"
hobby in Australia, but it is doubtful whether it serves much useful
social purpose.

There's much at all to be said for it unless it actually delivers
worthwhile results.
