CPH, the place was actually called 'Lachlan Vintage Village' (no "Valley" innit).
There's a brief story about the 2-foot gauge loco here:

Search the page for 'Lachlan' and you'll find out more.

Sorry, I was confused, it was a different heritage centre, but it was a Forbes.

Garret = not quite right
Garratt = right
Lachlan Vintage Village = correct (well, the Garratt almost made it to the village ... and it's still there ... marooned).
There were one or two massive threads about this subject. Probably better that one of the old threads be investigated before we go through it all again here.
