This car is big disappointment in my opinion. The cast on ladders - especially on the ends - ruins the model for me. Model tooling and expectations are much higher these days, and to release a model like this takes the hobby back 20 years. I’ve wanted a car like this for a DEEX train for long time, but I won’t be buying any of these so my train will have to wait until something better comes along.
