The Bachmann Collectors Club has worked with Packaging2u.co.uk, a division of Macfarlane Packaging, to produce bespoke rolling stock boxes for the transportation and storage of locomotives and rolling stock. Members of the Bachmann Collectors Club and Warley Model Railway Club have been involved from the concept stage.

The bespoke box design has the ability to be customised to the users requirements. Each box can hold 30 OO gauge wagons, 10 coaches or 10 large locomotives due to the ability to fit vertical runners into the horizontal strips provided in the inside of the box allowing you to accommodate for 20 tank locomotives as opposed to 10 large tender locomotives.

Each box comprises of two parts, supplied flat packed with no gluing required making the boxes more eco-friendly. The boxes are also easy to assemble with inter-locking lips for added security. The boxes have been designed to include an information panel in which details of the contents displayed for use when storing the boxes. The model boxes are available to purchase online at www.packaging2u.co.uk/modelboxes and are sold in packs of 5 at 24.73, equivalent to 4.95 per box. Delivery charges are extra.

Packaging2u.co.uk also provide a range of complementary products for use with the boxes by means of acid free tissue paper for protecting the models and plain labels that can be used for detailing the contents of the box. Further information on the products offered can be found at www.packaging2u.co.uk.
