super, i would do something like that but have several reasons not to... lol.

1: im actually quite grouchy and dont do people touching my trains well. even my own niece and nephews i get cross and pack up pretty quickly the few times i do get stuff out for them.

2: kids [and more their parents] arent overly respectful of other peoples stuff here. the times i have had gear within anyones reach, ive had issues with things. the auto transfer station ive had people give the "stuck engine" a push, causing crashes, and kids played with my ride on trains too, turning it on and off and jumping over the track.
i even had one guy readjust the controller on an HO layout that was behind bollards, causing it to derail. it was running fine, just not as fast as some of the others. the track itself was dodgy and needed a certain speed.

3: theft can and does happen at such events. im actually semi reconsidering taking my minis to this show due to this risk. if i can find a way to seal the display units, they wont be going and something else will that i can trust wont be at such risk.

4: all my track is stored in the ceiling and it takes ages to find decent track thats useful and fun. that set up above took me all day, just hunting and working out what track i wanted and how to make it interesting.
