That looks really great. Kjell. Really subtle weathering and I love the Viking longship. Is that your own design or based on the real thing?

Re: The Pine Hill Railway (PHRy) - a Norwegian Garden Railway
I'm having a problem with the picture, Kjel. All I see on your post is the word " image " and it isn't a link or anything. Using my mod facilities I went into edit mode and discovered that the picture is in your Dropbox and by inputting the URL directly into Firefox it opened straight away. I don't know whether it is the permissions set in Dropbox or something in my Firefox or BitDefender that is stopping it being recognised as valid.
Anyway, lovely wagon. I do like the lettering and weathering.

I think most of you will see the image. Maybe it is about the browser.
Anyway - the wiking ship logo on the tanker wagon is the authentic and historic logo of «Norsk Hydro».
Norsk Hydro was making «tungt vann» (heavy water) during WWII in a small town Rjukan in Norway. And the heavy water was «maybe» shiped abroad with tanker wagons like my model.
Here is a link to the story about the heavy water production in Norway ...

A new wagon with heavy load (Tungt vann = D2O = deuteriumoxyd) for my Pine Hill Railway (PHRy).
A Swift Sixteen Tanker wagon kit heavily weathered. Due to the heavy load the wagon is fitted with bogies instead of the kit original 4-wheel arrangement.
