Tongue-in-cheek...
At what point does the line cross between a small "real" engine and a large "model" engine (aside from a model being a smaller representation of a "prototype"?)

Revenue service? (So a zoo train is "real"?)
Or personal ownership for personal enjoyment (so the rebuilt Eureka is now a "model"?)

Just a stray thought...
