I'm weathering this for a friend.  Neat little model:

Wish I could come up with an excuse to get one, because it is a neat looking model, but it wouldn't serve any purpose for me except to collect dust.

I will say those trucks look tasty, save for the wheels. Are they truck- or body-mounted?

They'd look even better under a freight car.  Too bad no caboose trucks were tooled for this model.

Yes, AZL said that would have added $4 per car...but that doesn't seem to bad of a price increase on a $64 model.
