Afternoon folks.
As you are all the font of all knowledge, would anyone know please where I can get a display case, either off the shelf (so to speak) or made to order, to house a Bachmann OO gauge Class 166 Turbo, 3 car.
It's needed fairly urgently, for a presentation.
Many thanks,
Cheers, Timmo
Picture Pride?
The nearest in their standard range is the "Big Boy" but I suspect that will only take 2 of the 3 cars.

They do custom sizes to order, but not sure how long that might take...
Have you got a rough idea of the dimensions needed? That might help with suggestions.
Firms like Sora or Train-Safe may have something

Thanks for this, at a guess I'd say probably about 3ft long, but I don't have the model, it's a friend who needs it and has the model. I'll have a look.
Thanks again.

Thank you, I'll get in touch and see what they can do.
