There are loads of places like the B&Q Warehouses which have good selections of plastic storage solutions. Tony (...) (20 years ago, 4-Jan-05, to lugnet.loc.uk)

It is 50033 "Glorious" in memory of the real engine of that name being shut up in Swindon (UK) STEAM museum, fully serviceable but unable to run - what a shame!
