Does anyone know anything about 5” gauge railways?

A relation of mine has ended up with a load of surplus 5 inch gauge track and a rather careworn looking shunter style loco with a couple of ride on carriages from a dismantled garden railway, but I’ve not got much in the way of knowledge when it comes to these things or what they’re worth?

Does anyone have any thoughts on where they might be able to sell them other than eBay?

This is the loco (battery powered):

One of the ride on wagons:

The (substantial amount of) track:

To me the track looks like the most valuable thing but who knows? :)

Might be worth contacting a local Model Engineering Society? (Sorry, don't know any down that way!)
