Those aren't too bad, or too pricey.

While I advocate DIY, I think that these aren't bad for those who just want to get to operating.

I dunno, something seems off to me. There also looks like fingerprints in some of the photos.

Even weathered it doesn't hide the missing "sight glass"

For the inexperienced
or cautious who want a weathered loco without risk.  The pricing is certainly not out of line with the weathered freight cars seen out there.  While there could be more depth to the washes and a gray/white over coat to fade the paint it is a credible weathering job...

I still say I'd rather see the manufacturers do FADED cars, not WEATHERED cars!!!
