As his grand daughter Emily plays with the toy men from the dragger loader Tom Wright of Outlook Sask. operates a remote control track hoe at the Collector Toy Show at Agri-Trade 2009 at the Westerner on Wednesday.

Built by his son Barry, the elaborate model display constructed from Meccano toy building sets is a fully functioning gravel operation.

Complete with loaders, conveyors and crushers the display moves sawdust, grain and Cheerios cereal through a realistic construction scenario.

Agri-Trade continues daily to Nov. 14 at Westerner Park.
