The bag further includes an information bearing portion related to the parts contained within the bag, the information bearing portion showing information such as, but not limited to, two or more of manufacturer, manufacturer contact information, part description, catalog number, part identifying number, date of purchase, cost at purchase, quantity at purchase, quality, size, bar code identifier, color code identifier, or the like. Also provided are advantageous alternate constructions of the bag and of a rail system including a novel base.
