Nope. The archivist was sorta walking by the model, and just sorta glanced at it and called it "the Fredrickson, originally labelled Excelsior from an episode of Voyager" or words to that effect.
I'm sure the model is normally crated and was taken out just for the interview, so the odds are it's NCC-42111 as we've assumed.

I recall reading from somewhere that Penny Juday ran the archives. If that's her, then I think we can assume exactly why that particular model was shown...

The archivist is indeed Penny. What's the story here? And why hasn't she absconded with all this stuff, to become a black market memorabilia millionairess?

According to an interview with Ms. Juday I read a while back, plus the listening device I've planted in her fruitbowl at home, she was hooked up with Trek scenic artist Anthony Fredrickson by the Okudas. They're presently married.
The good ship Frederickson is named after you-know-who. Not to be outdone, Anthony (or possibly someone else in the Voyager Art Department) apparently snuck "Juday" onto a paper diagram of the Maquis raider that some people allege is readable in a Voyager episode.

I don't think that a Constitution Class saucer section was used as the debris field from a Galaxy Class starship. Perhpas they used that instead in the DS9 episode "The Sound of Her Voice" since there seems to be a Constitution Class refit nacelle in the crash area.
Can anyone make a DVD pic of the Fredrickson in the crate?

To me the Odyssey's wrecked saucer looked Galaxy to me, perhaps a plastic model? And the Lantree, I think it's just a coincidence that it appears to use letters from "Reliant". I think the script (that was obviously written first) called for a ship named Lantree, but give no specific model to use since it was only identified by dialog as a "Class whatever Supply Ship". The people just picked up the Reliant model and used it. It could have easily been the Grissom model or the Stargazer model or the Excelsior model or the refit Enterprise model if they chose fit.
