It be the same size as I guess it’s the same base that was installed in the former building and they won’t Theme the sides as the glass panels will be installed round the sides.
It's actually smaller according to employees due to the original exhibition having a bigger gap where the viaduct was

I'm not what will happen to the viaduct model. Maybe it might go back into storage or it might go into storage at the Midland Railway Centre with some of the props that was displayed at the Clearwater Events in 2021 and 2022 and might get displayed at a future Thomas or TUGS event.

Or Mattel may take it back too?

Yeah, you could be right, you could be right. Although, a new extension building was constructed at Butterly (The Midland Railway Centre) to store props in addition to the previously existing unit housing the assets exhibited at Clearwater Events to make access easier for the events (link: the TTTE wiki). And Tom Tipper's Post Van, a Taxi (in the V.I.P. area) and Neptune Refreshments that used to be on display on Drayton went to be on display at the Clearwater Events in 2021 and 2022. So maybe the Viaduct model might end up being displayed at a future Clearwater Event in the V.I.P era.
