What is a train case used for?
A train case is a piece of luggage for travel on a train, or at least that was its original intention. A train case is similar to what we’d consider a carry-on today. It’s much smaller than a trunk and designed to hold toiletries and other essentials. Find a collection of vintage and modern train cases on 1stDibs.
