They look very nice, well done.
How do they run? You don't appear to have added any weight?

They have whitemetal axleboxes, metal wheels, accucraft chopper couplings. They are heavy enough and run well.

They look brilliant, very realistic.

John Peck, Precision Labels.

You send him a pdf of what you want and he prints it out on waterslide film pretty much by return.

As others have said, wonderful job, I always like the look of low sided open wagons. They seem to look more purposeful, and yours are an excellent example,
