Hopefully they'll do a better job on body mounts on these than they did on the PS-1 box cars. On the PS-1, instead of lowering the car for the body mounts they lowered the coupler pocket ...  :facepalm:

Sure, and maybe they'll give the GSC flat an end sill.  :P

Got the Primed for Grime ABOX in amongst the latest TankTrain shipment - pretty happy with how this turned out. Should be a good starting point for some grime!

Here's a quick grab:

It looked cool enough, I felt compelled to add graffiti decals:
