Largest collection of model coaches and buses

According to Official Guinness Records,

Geoff Price (UK) has 10,955 model coaches and buses, as of April 2011, which he has collected since 1959. Geoff also holds a record for the largest collection of model trams. Since 2003 Geoff and his wife Linda have been visiting Sri Lanka each year in search of model buses and trams to add to his collection. According to Geoff, it is one of the best places to find plastic toys in the world. He was surprised on a recent trip there when his collection saw him appear on TV stations and in national newspapers. His collection has grown so much that he now has three rooms, loft area and double garage devoted to the collection.
