DB picked up a few mid-sized Sistema plastic tubs when they were on special a year ago, and has been pottering away making foamboard inserts of various shapes and styles for quite some time now.

| Weights take out any natural warp in the foamboard base |
My base layer is a stiff plastic floor tile as the plastic bins have a natural fishbelly depression in the centre. On top sit two or three layers of inserts.
The coal hopers have had little bits of plastic bubblewrap stuck between them, and there are bits of kitchen towel deployed in places too to cusion the inserts from the sides.
This weekend these splendiferous Train Bins™ will make their first trip north in anger to visit the Christchurch Train Show.
