Nice video, how would you rate the Dapol wagons, not just the pocket ones, against say Bachmann? Cheers in advance :)

Dapol can be very hit and miss with wagons, the FEA's are superb, but other wagons have had major issues. Bachmann tend to produce the best modern wagons available!

Did you have any problems with the height of the nem pocket on the Dapol pocket container wagon compared to the standard Bachmann height? mine were way off! so I sold them. But you have put me in the mood to try again. Are you using Kadee couplings on them?

Thanks, Sam..

I cant remember any issue with the height of the couplings, i do use kadee's, cant remember if i have used them on these wagons or not. I will check when I am next in the attic. They are a nice wagon tho

So who supplies the 40ft's ?, is it bachmann ??

tnks in advance

[Bondy1980]

C rail containers supplied most of my containers!

I suppose pocket wagons will be redundant when all the intermodal routes are W10 cleared.

i have a pocket wagon there quite good.

Hey

The KTA's are only designed to carry 40 foot boxes, 45ft high cubes are carried on the the megafrets

[tbmsp]

Hi, can you tell me which containers you are using for the Dapol Pocket wagons, as their own 45ft hi cubes dont fit !!

Many thanks
