Well, like many of you I am going through that phase where I am thinning out my accumulation. I have read quite a bit about storing trains, but, here is what I would like your opinion about.
I have a number of new boxed engines and cars, Lionel, MTH, Williams (original factory boxes), never opened. I am trying to catalogue all I have and I need to but them in a space where I have access. Of course, my garage is unheated and temperatures in winter, well you know. Could easily be down to -10 or so. BUT, that is the only space I really have.
What is your opinion of using the garage as storage during the late fall and winter? I have Super O track in the garage and have for years with no ill effects. Will the trains survive without rust or other damage? Will the boxes provide any worthwhile protection? Once I have catalogued will do my best to get them back in the house or even better sell them.
Thanks for your opinions
