Profimodeller has released a multi-media kit of the Steyr K2670 armored rail car, and here Kevin Brant has a look in the box.

Nice to have alternatives for Dragon's rather old kit.

Frank that's like saying cyanides a nice alternative to strychnine! I've never seen the Dragon kit but I think anyone would be pushed to come up with something as bad as this. Looking at the mouldings, lack of locating guides etc I think Kevin's been incredibly diplomatic about the kit. If I'd bought this it would be going back the same day. Looks like a real mess to me. I'm not very keen on the sound of this "uretan" stuff either... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethyl_carbamate

I am wondering if it is polyurethane?

Either way, I guess I'll stick with styrene and be happy.
