Received 5 of these yesterday and the amount of detail is ridiculously incredible. I have waited for this particular body style for years, as it was the first type in this paint scheme to hit the rails back in the early 2000s. And shortly after, the Walther’s and ExactRail body styles started showing up. I’ve pulled several of these during my railroad days as a Conductor on BNSF. And even then, this Aurora body style type stood out from other Gondolas in my consist.

awesome video james. i was kind of holding out on buying rolling stock from aurora minatures til I saw a review. Your review helped me to decide that their gondola and boxcar should be added to my fleet. I have some AM containers and love the details and opening doors on them, so I was happy their quality is equal in their rolling stock. thank you again for the great review and video.

It's beautifully detailed. I think that's a Walthers you're comparing against, they do offer that road number anyway. Walthers being half the SRP, for the money I might get one Aurora and multiple Walthers because of the price difference. Hate to say it but on a layout underbody detail doesn't show well unless it's a derailment.

I purchased 2 of these and they are very nice. The only nick is the coupler height is abit low and that was the same on the boxcars I purchased from them too.

Sometimes I think companies that build these models are ramping up the details so they can charge more for the models … once upon a time, 100$ could buy at least 3 to 4 rolling stock cars….. now 100 might get you 2 to 3 rolling stock cars…. Good review as always James…. I literally look to your commentary before I purchase any add ons to my model RR👍🏽

First you should know US printed much dollars than 20 years ago, you should get inflation, Second you should thanks to Chinese people they greatly improved the details and they should earn more. Actually they even earn less because one dollar doesn't mean one dollar in 2004, now is 2024, you cannot keep models cheap while other freaking stuffs' price can rising freely.

Couplers? Kadee? I like the price I just I'm curious to see what kind of couplers they're put on it. You see these days your paying $60 for a car and then they put $0.05 couplers on them. You can't tell me the Katie's are that more expensive or they can even include that in the price.
