I understand this may be a foreign concept for people who have permanent layouts [;)], but for those of us who aren't as fortunate, how do you store your trains? Original packaging, plastic containers like Rubbermaid containers, display cases? <br /> <br />For N Scale, most of the stuff I own came in plastic containers. What does everyone do with these? Do many of you keep them, toss them or reuse them for something else? I don't have a lot, so I think they would make cool storage containers for small things. I imagine that once you've been in the hobby for awhile, that you accumulate so many that they probably get tossed. <br /> <br />While I'm currently dabbling in N Scale, my father has been into O Guage for all is life. It seemed that your serious O railroader would never throw away the orange Lionel boxes. Any other manufacturer's packaging quickly saw it's way to the trash can. <br /> <br />
