They came today and when I unpacked them I was very pleased. Of course you still need to lube them and check the couplers and fix any problems. The problems on these were very few, put them on the track and let them go. Btw I run these on O42 and . they run very smooth and with very little sway that you would expect on a car this tall.
The trucks could be smoother but after a little while of running it seemed they were rolling better.
Be careful how you handle them because some of structure is fragile but not overly so.
These are worth what you are getting, close to scale and on a layout they look scale. If they were scale they would be way too big to run on most layouts. Prototype auto carrier's carried between 5-6 cars on 3 levels depending on the size of the vehicle.
I like them and right now I have six, I don't see myself buying anymore because the six look great.
