It depends. I used to buy and sell a lot of high end audio and, if an item was
shipped with peanuts, you could guarantee damage. The best I have found is
large bubble wrap wrapped around the item to fit in the shipping box with extra
attention to corners.
There is actually a shipping forum at Audiokarma:

Obviously geared toward larger audio items, but still a lot of info there
useable by model railroaders as well.
