Anyone want LGB Boxes?

[gorilla33]

Hello everyone,
I'm new to this forum, and found it after googling for G scale forums. I have an autistic nephew, and his only love in life is model railroads. I'm not wealthy, but I buy him whatever I can afford. He really likes G Scale, and this Christmas, I bought him 3 LGB cars: 2 circus cars, and one tanker car. I have the mint boxes, and was wondering if anyone would be interested in them.

I would like to trade them for something he can use, like track, g scale stuff?

Thanks for your help!

Thanks for the offer, I would be more inclined to take them if they fit the models I didn't have boxes for :)

Sorry.

I would recommend keeping them.. they come in handy when you want to store the trains and protect against needless damage should they fall from somewhere. I wish I had boxes for all mine.

Oh and welcome to the forum. :thumbsup:

I'm a LGB collector / operator so if you have any questions, just drop them in the forum!

Yeah, storing his trains in the boxes is really not an option, but thanks for the reply. They are from:
G-Scale BASF 1-Dome Tank Car (2-Axle European Style, 300 mm)
Also marked for the Swiss RhB railroad (Rhaetische Bahn)

LGB Catalogue #4040C, one of the very early LGB tank cars (1979-88).

LGB 4036 Circus Animal Car

LGB 4165 Circus Caboose

Anyway, if you ever have any inexpensive rolling stock, or track you would like to sell let me know!
