It's silly to think they went to the trouble of re-labeling the ship just for a display- decaling (particularly on that scale) is a pain in the ass.
Got a pic of said ship...mabye on that there "website" I hear you have?

Well, apparently they did it for the Valkyrie, because the Constellation model never appeared after "Redemption II" (TNG), and it was still labeled as the Hathaway in that ep.
Oh, and I've been trying to find a picture of the Trinculo for more than three years...with no success. But I am assured by multiple individuals that they do exist.

I heard that Elvis had a pic and that the model itself is being held at Groom Lake.....
As to the valkerie, they might have intended to use it for a DS9 shot (instead of some frankenbash) but did not shoot it for some reason.. Besides, we all know that "Valkerie" refers to tiny-tiny federation fighters that can take out a Romulan Warbird if you hit it enough times.

Tell it to the choosers of the slain, pallie. You gonna tell them how to spell their name?
Yeah, that's what I thought.

It did... at least until the hard drive that it was stored in was destroyed in an earthquake here in Los Angeles a while ago.

Heeeey! I noticed something tonight whilst re-watching DS9:SOA....the grey necks on the Galaxys dont match the saucer's seperation lines- they arc up to the main shuttlebay.
I know (naturally) that no one else has ever noticed this and I'm a pioneer and all, but why do you guys think the CGI model was made this way? It's an odd thing to intentionally add to the ship.

Well the area between the separation line and the shuttlebay is where the main arboretum was (the big square arrays of windows). If the darker grey hull plating is meant to be armour...

If it's armor, why does it stop midway towards the saucer's impulse engines (an obvious target) and no on th shuttlebay itself?
Mabye they needed to protect ther on-board stash from Dominion attack. What with war being so stressful and all.

The USS Trinculo was seen in a traveling exzibit that went around various Planet Hollywoods in the mid 1990's. The USS Venture model was seen in 1995 in a Planet Hollywood around the same time the USS Trinculo model made a tour. Few photos are around of the latter model... some of which was destroyed in a hard drive that was crushed during a minor earthquake in Los Angeles. I am the owner of that hard drive...

The scene in question is of the fleet moving out from Starbase 375 (the super-sized Regula model) in SOA.
