A storage area is only as good as my designer Kathy Ireland book case I use for my layout trains. LOL
Really, found this really nice oak book case, as I was able to get additional shelves and Kathy designed it just for me. Right. Now my train room has class.

I had a rather exciting day; I rebuilt my Staging Exchange yard area. Some years ago I built a large shelf over the S/E yard and it never was easily accessible. Now you can see the yard and it is a easily accessible. (All of the turnouts in the yard are manual.) Next up is to clean and detail it. I also have to box/store about 20 more freight cars so as to make more room to run trains through the yard. Unlike Frank Titman's excellent barge shelved storage racks, or the one I really like, Ed Loizeaux's train storage cabinet, I store my off the layout equipment in special boxes made for such a purpose. The boxes are marked and I know what is stored in each one, as I have a card inventory system. Each box stores roughly 18 cars. Locomotives are stored on the layout, like the prototype, at the engine house and diesel yards. It has been a long time since I've spent an entire day model railroading. Feel's great!
