N Gauge Stock Box

The last time we were out with my Sons new N Gauge layout, all the stock was in the original boxes and it took ages to get everything ready and put it away. A decision was taken that we look for alternatives and look at stock boxes.

After looking on various sites we found N Gauge was not well catered for, OO and even O had plenty of options. A self manufacture seemed to be the best way out and several options were looked at. I had some old ‘Bachmann’ OO Stock boxes that have become redundant since my move to O Gauge, so an extra cardboard spacer was made to half the size of the OO gaps. It worked very well and the two layers now hold a total of 43 wagons and coaches. I used foam cubes to hold the stock in position. That’s saved some money!
