I'm seriously considering building a layout in a case.
However, after spending most of today wandering around second hand stores , music stores and looking on line, I'm finding it impossible to source a suitable case.
I was thinking guitar or keyboard case but have drawn a blank.(all too narrow).
Ideally, I would like to be able to ceeate a roundy roundy layout. To do this I really need a width of 50cm and I'd like a length of  100cm min or ideally 120cm.
I don't want to spend a fortune on something I'm not going to use for its intended purpose.
Does anyone know of a source of such a case that I can purchase?

I would look for a second hand flight case on ebay such as this one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Large-flightcase-with-handles-good-for-keyboards-stands-cables-etc/322991774841?hash=item4b33cf5c79:g:N-QAAOSwoddaVhhi
1.4m by 0.61m in this case but there are loads out there.

Thank you.
That certainly has potential. I shall keep an eye on that for a couple of days .

For Left Luggage I managed to source an old "demob" style suitcase from eBay for £20. A flight case would certainly be more practical for a larger layout if you can source a relatively cheap one (another option is to buy the strapping/hinges for one and build a flight case)

Hi Martin,

That case certainly seems to be a good one, especially as the seller has put no reserve on it 

It says one catch is broken, that could easily be fixed with a replacement from someone like ....

Will look forward to your build 

All the best

PS. Loved your last video relaxing watching the trains run

Many thanks to cutting42 for pointing me in the direction of a flight case.
It's now on its way and a new layout in a case will be keeping me busy in a week or so.
