I went back and reviewed the first couple of pages of this thread because I had it in my mind that it was a direct throw off from a discussion a number of us were having regarding an article in MRR about incorporating a polar bear into a scene on our respective layouts.

For years I had an O scale version of the box that I put on my space when doing train shows. I have a few N scale boxes printed out; not sure if I ever got an HO one.
Now, that was much like finding the old photo album, at Grandma's house!
those were different times.

I had to find this thread because my 13 year old son finally spotted my little "Gauge" box from way back when and asked me where it came from. Now he wants to try to make one! :-D :thumb:
