For the box…

Train box with slots (File name: LPH_AnimalBoxCar_Box_wWindows)
Add adhesive to the tabs.

Put the lid on top.

This is a plain style lid (File name: LPH_AnimalBoxCar_Lid_Plain)

Wheels measure 1.5″.
You can add the trim to the wheels or attach several layers together to make stronger. Or you can use buttons or chipboards to create your own.

You will see tick marks on the file (LPH_AnimalBoxCar_Connector) for placement suggestion.

Here I used large eyelets to attach the wheels to the bottom of the box. My glue wasn’t strong enough so I ended up securing it by putting tapes over, heehee.

I used lollipop sticks to align the wheels.

I used small eyelets to connect the trains together.
