The detail and quality of resin castings on Swift Sixteen kits continues to impress and I have a good number of Rob's kits. One issue in the past has been where a component or part has been perfectly cast but would have been better, for me at least, if had it been cast separately or been an etched or cast brass add on or similar. This is not the case with the WD wagon and the brass add ons are as impressive looking as the resin castings and I look forward to getting a rake once the pre orders have been cleared.

That is a lot of kit for not too much money, especially when you consider other kits of the same wagon on the market.
