GNRi1959 Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 I know it sounds like a sin but does anyone know of nice display cabinets/shelves where you can store rolling stock - loco's and wagons - in the home. 1
0 Broithe Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 Lidl has had some recently, there were still two in Port Laoise on Wednesday last week - somebody has mentioned them on here recently. They're the "wrong way round" to store stuff in 'train format', but quite good for separate items. - It should also be possible to insert extra shelves, I think.
0 GNRi1959 Posted January 11, 2019 Author Posted January 11, 2019 (edited) Thanks, i'll check it out. Looks like the ideal retirement present for my railway efforts! https://www.argos.co.uk/product/8720791?cmpid=GS001&_$ja=tsid:59157|acid:480-316-7430|cid:199887513|agid:17470456473|tid:pla-92279696073|crid:74692316193|nw:g|rnd:3617982153281093449|dvc:c|adp:1o1|mt:|loc:1007290&gclid=Cj0KCQiAmuHhBRD0ARIsAFWyPwi_j_r_0GigtAoCDvh7esVBp3vc7V4s122hMptm7IFZFtrUVrP_rNMaAs6QEALw_wcB Edited January 11, 2019 by GNRi1959

0 Mayner Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 I made a couple of display cases using ripped down shelving material with doors and shelves from a local galzing merchant, we managed between us to double up on the overlap for the sliding doors. We also picked up a very nice hardwood display case on a local on-line auction site. The only remotely challenging bit was routing the panels for the sliding doors with a very cheap plunge router. 3

0 DJ Dangerous Posted May 1, 2020 Posted May 1, 2020 IKEA Billy units are very handy for display and storage - large-scale like WRENNEIRE's or small-scale like mine. I find that for the tiny board that I run trains on, each Billy shelf holds enough stock for at least one full train. 5 1
