The possible way out of this would to have an area with a display of miniature working steam.
Also have set times for vehicles to drive around the site ?
I may be wrong but I do not think their are any control over vehicle movement at large events like the G.N.S.F.
After all they have their own miniature steam train.

Vehicle movement is do what you like, and it works well. Set times would make in a lot less enjoyable and I believe the random nature of movement is a big plus with the public, they never know what they might see next.

I like miniatures, we own one but I don't really see a place for them at the GNSF. The site is fairly rammed with full size vehicles.

Surely the best way would be to have a weekend solely dedicated to model engineering, a sort of Alley Palley out in the open.
