(...) Besides being a box size that LEGO uses to store bricks (as I remember it, not that many bricks styles were actually stored in the K-8 size boxes, but that was 10 years ago) what is a K-8? Thanks, Chris (24 years ago, 20-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains.org)

(...) A "K-8" is a standard size storage box for LEGO. It's about 30"x18"x16". I have one at home, I'll get an exact measurement and post it sometime. JohnG, GMLTC (24 years ago, 17-Oct-00, to lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.org.ca.nalug)
