Welcome To Moor Boxes
Tiny Worlds In Little Boxes
 Hello and welcome to my
world of Model Railways.... in Box Files!
Everything on this website features model railways
that have been built by me, within standard 'off the shelf' box files.
The type you would usually see around offices storing such things as
finance reports, staff records and other mundane bits of paper... My
boxes are far more fun!
Whilst looking through youTube one day. I came
across a few micro layouts and then one in a box file, perhaps I could
try that I said to myself... so I did. This website shows the results
of that thought.
I laid down a few basic ground rules for myself:
- Each box made must be a self contained scene
- The box retains all four sides and it's lid
- Everything must fit within the height of the
box (around 65mm)
In general I've stuck to the above 'guidelines'
All of the boxes are modelled in N Gauge (1/148
scale).
Controls and electrics are very simple and all run
off analogue controllers.
Please use the menu to explore each of these
miniature worlds.
