These Railine boxcar kits have been around for years. I built my first ones in 1980. They were almost a well kept secret advertised in a small box in the Narrow Gauge Gazette. They build into a nicely detailed car, You do need to drill a lot of holes for the grabs and paint and decal them. They have a exquisite hand wheel and if you can separate it from the sprue your home free. I glued a 3/8 nut inside over each bolster to make them track better. They take time to build, but they are well worth the effort. Best response I had from a much younger HOn3 modeler was, looking at my layout,"When did PBL start making RTR HOn3 boxcars"?. Well, they really didn't look that good,
