    Fibre glass steps on roofrack

    I just wondered what others think of keeping fibre glass steps on the roof rack.I see a lot of vans with them on the top but but I would have thought weather would cause corrosion and also danger of having them nicked.I keep mine in the van but they take up a lot of space.

    Steps on public transport.

    Started getting the train into central London where I work. Most of the time I am at one site for a few weeks at a time so I put my site box in there. But sometimes I pop round to a few jobs need a small compact set of steps a bit taller than a hop up.
