Very sad episode, I know if it was me I couldn't salvage any parts, my heart would not be in it.
The layout was systematically wrecked. No part is untouched. It’s a total loss.Can anything be salvaged or is it a lost cause?

Like I said, these scumbags need to be named and shamed. We can all show support by turning up to their day in court, if John can supply us with a date, where we can just stare at them during their appearance in front of the bench. This might also influence the judge when considering the sentence. I live in south London 130 miles away with a 2 and a half hour drive, tell me the date and I'll be there.

I also have a deep-seated feeling that the general portrayal in the media of model railways/enthusiasts makes us fair game for 'a bit of fun' because, after all, we must be emotionally retarded and socially inadequate.
Sorry Rob, I totally disagree, A full gallery would make a difference. These thugs need to know the extent of the damage they have done, not just the physical but the mental damage to those who have lost so much.
You are right about the fine community within this hobby, which is so evident from the writings above.
