These stylish luggage racks are the perfect way to display or store your favourite items.
The racks are a replica of the original luggage racks used on the decommissioned 'A' stock trains which ran on the Metropolitan line.
The 'A' stock trains were introduced in the early 1960s and their interior design had more in common with main line suburban trains than tube trains.
Made from aluminium, the luggage racks are very strong and durable but also lightweight.

Fixing Guidance
• It is strongly recommended that professional guidance to fix the racks is sought from a reputable hardware store or qualified person, and please bear in mind that cavity walls (common inside
houses) will need substantially more fixing support than load bearing walls. The racks were designed as an integral part of the train carriage construction and domestic use will need
substantial fixing support.
• Fixing should be carried out by a competent person.
• Check the heads on the fixings are the correct size.
• Check that the drill bit used is the correct size.
• Double check all measurements before drilling holes.
• Avoid fixing to surfaces near heat sources (for example fire or cookers). Even though the racks are aluminium, what is stored on them may not be fireproof.
• Please regularly check screws and fixings to ensure that the racks remain securely fixed.
• As a guide, and if PROPERLY fixed, the recommended safe working load for the rack is 15kg.
