Title: flight cases for rolling stock
Post by: pilotfriend on March 20, 2009, 20:43
We have worked with a company called KaiserRushforth Ltd (they are Brits, honest) and they have now developed the ultimate flight cases for rolling stock.

Thanks - very interesting indeed.  Do you feel that 009 stock would fit into their D3 size too?  Or would you really ahve to settle for D2 only.??

Cheers Colin

It is possible but I do not think that he has developed the lower cardboard tray to fit D3. I actually raise the height of the holes by gluing in 1/4" foam. My stock is heavy and once, with the old system, the tray deformed and rolled locos out of the try. This problem is now solved.

For me, they are the 'dogs bollocks'!

I have just received my KR Multicase in black from Daryl at Kaiser Rushforth with the OO9 trays. It is excellent and very easy to configure for locos and rolling stock. I would also agree that it is top notch.

I took the plunge too, just the card variety as a test...
