I really like those 2 part brass ledges/hangers. I bet the soldiered nicely.
Good work so far! I know it seems like a lot of work now, but years from now (if the model doesn't get broken knock on wood), you will still look at all the detail and be amazed, especially the scale thickness of the handles and hooks.

I really adore your work and all the added detail you do. A tad beyond which I do.It gives me a few ideas in how to improve my own kit. I feel that the model industry has gone nuts at times with parts count expanding exponentially. You did not state which kit was the base for your über detailing project. Still wonder why the wagon was listed as schwerer when there are heavier rated wagons.

Hi Trevor
many thanks for your comment. No kit base used for this build, it is actually whole new LZ models model and its test build before production has started. The truth is personally I preffer rather more complicated and detailed kits
Schwerer - I guess 50t load for this size wagon is pretty amazing, some just a bit smaller platform wagons could by loaded only up 25-30t, so the wagon was called this way - kinda honor for it

Hi Libor!
this one's a great one again, take care or we'll get used to it
To be honest, I'm dealing with a rather long-time project in 1:87, as soon as its ready, I will give my BR52 some attention again!
Keep up your great work! Wish you lots of succes!
Cheers,
Jean
