More Than £107,000, including a £10,000 donation from model rail enthusiast Sir Rod Stewart , has been raised in a crowdfunding appeal to repair the exhibitions.
Sentencing The Boys , chairman of The Bench of magistrates John Lock said: "In nearly 20 years on The Bench , I cannot recall such a case as this, of mindless, wanton destruction. It beggars belief.
"You came across the displays and Models . . and not content with kicking a ball, you then went on a Rampage . "
More Than £107,000 has been pledged for The ClubPeter Davies , chairman of the Market Deeping Model Railway club, said he was glad due process had been followed but it was "right they [The Teenagers ] make The Best use of their future".

Charitable trustThe "enormous" amount of money raised would go to a charitable trust that is in The Process of being Set Up , Mr Davies revealed.
One of its objectives will be to establish Youth Projects .
"By October we could see 60 Young People involved in modelling projects they would never have done before," he said.
Prosecutor Shelley Wilson said The Four boys had made admissions in interviews about the damage.
One model railway enthusiast from St Neots Model Railway Club, John Kneeshaw, who contributed to The Exhibition , had suffered £15,000 of damage, the court heard.
