Coming up is the Toy Soldier Museum – which is really not a museum at all but rather an artwork in progress by local brothers, Allan and Ian Farley, who mould, cast, and hand-paint armies of tin-alloy soldiers for export all over the world. Each of these painstakingly crafted miniatures is a unique work of art, sought after by collectors. It was the Farley’s great-great grandfather, Samuel Oates, who brought the first wheeled vehicle over the Rimutakas 150 years ago – a wheelbarrow loaded with gum trees. On reaching Greytown, however, he was the victim of theft. Of the three trees he ‘lost’, one reappeared, intriguingly planted outside St Lukes Church, where it can still be seen today!
