    <font color="336633">Well at the weekend I picked up an Athearn Genesis 50' Sieco Boxcar and it is easy the best car I have, the detailing is so far in front of everthing else. I for one will be looking into buying more of the Genisis line in future even with the high cost [​IMG] </font>

    Right there with you, Matthew! I just purchased 2 more 60' SP Berwicks. They are awesome!

    I was with him when he bought the car, and the detailing is superb. Quality like that should be supported, so more of this excellent line of cars are produced. (And this is an N-Scaler talking) :D

    The Genesis boxcars I've seen at my local hobby shop definitely have more detail than the RTR (ready to Roll) line. The price is a bit high, but given the detail, coupers, and trucks w/metal wheels, it's a decent investment.

    Just started to weather it, it does seem a shame to mucky it up, so its only getting a light covering
