Hi dougalmac2,

These were made to use & not just for the challenge so that information will I hope be a great help !

Home today so in addition to sorting out my 45XX I have done a stage 1 & 2 weathering washes to both
Lowmacs. Still wet so tomorrow I should lash the tractors on to 905021, while 905050 remains unloaded.
I think that unless I run coupled together they may both stay on without derailing. The NEM couplings are
glued on so No sideways flexibility, but alongside RTR wagons they seem to behave.

Just a few days too late, but even that's better than expected.

They both look great Geoff and the subtle weathering really enhances them. Only one day late too. :D

Yes agreed on both points :D. I really like those wagons - I know you are a bit of a wagon aficionado Geoff, so I think you can be justly proud of them 8). As I said before, I want one now :lol:
Personally I think one day late is 'within the rules'!
