A wallcabinet with a key collection of very early Table Railway sets, made by Bing (and then by Karl Bub), including clockwork and electric versions.

These "tabletop railway" sets were imported into the UK by Bassett-Lowke, and were instrumental in launching the new 00-gauge format in the UK.

The cabinet is at the rear of the Museum, in Arch Three, near the large 00-gauge layout, and facing the displays of lead figures.
