Really nice design. The ribs especially are really spiffy, and the green really brings out the detail. I agree with your comment about the wheels. Other than that, cool car. -Stefan- (...) (22 years ago, 29-Mar-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) The site states that the Basel / Genova / Hamburg printed bricks are very rare (though I guess the Glasgow / Manchester / London ones will be equally rare outside the UK). Bif (22 years ago, 29-Mar-03, to lugnet.trains)

Greatings, I recently completed a MOC of 100-Ton Hopper car. I modeled it after a "Proto 1000 Series" HO scale kit I borrowed from my brother. I wasn't able to get the ribbing to line up in the middle of the car and I think the wheels could benefit (...) (22 years ago, 29-Mar-03, to lugnet.trains) !

Wow, I think your right! And I think their at both ends of the loco? The buffers do look square, look at the same image, way down at the bottom... the image of the roof popping off the loco, I think it has square buffers! It looks to be a new train (...) (22 years ago, 29-Mar-03, to lugnet.trains)
