I've been keeping about 400 train boxes, and I am curious to hear the pros and cons of saving them. I don't plan on selling my collection any time soon and they do take up a lot of basement space. Rick

I keep all of my boxes and wish that all of the trains that I have accumulated over the years had their original boxes.
If you have the space and it makes you happy, keep them. If you are invested in the collector selling mentality, and it makes you happy, keep them.
If you don't have the space, then you probably have too many trains.
If you don't care about the collector selling mentality, do what makes you happen and solves space problems if that's the real issue.
What are these strange words you speak, "too many trains"? 😉

Keep it in its original context: "If you don't have the space, then you probably have too many trains." No truer words ever written in this forum.
What, me worry?
