Loco box

 

Loco in box
My Dad's had a little production line running recently, turning out boxes for both boats and trains. Quite a lot of our garden railway stock now has a proper wooden home now, which will keep it clean in the garage, and make it easier to move. 

Of course, while he was at it, he made something for the Roundhouse loco. 

The boxes are pretty simple, aided by being able to buy the plywood ready-cut from the ever-excellent  Torry's Hardware. He simply takes a cutting list along, and the next day, picks up the peices. A little sanding and glue later, we have a box.

Sliding perspex fronts are an upgrade on the plywood ones we used to used. It's handy to be able to see what's inside, and the boxes now double as display cases, well, we're quite pleased with what's inside!
