(Two axel china clay hoppers MGR CDA)
(R6223)
Rating 8/10, Much improved model
This new model features NEM coupling, spring
loaded buffers and a weathered finish. The chassis has had some changes and
the whole model is more detailed than its previous version.
I am assuming that the track handling of this
model has also been improved although I haven't brought any of this model
yet. A picture of this model will be coming soon.

(R6106) Rating 3/10,
Its an average model with poor handling.
The detailing on this model is good but it looks a bit plastic. This model
is not weighted and came with plastic wheels. All in all a very basic model.
This model has very poor handling problems due to the design if the chasse.
It derails at points and is unstable even on straights. I have managed to
modify it so that it runs better, but it should have been made better in the
first place. Its my understanding that there is a new version of this out
with spring loaded buffers and more detailing. this may be the case but it
still may have a handling problem. my advise stay away from this one.
