At first glance, these wagons are quite finely engraved. The markings are very fine and legible. See the number plate.
The handrails are more or less well mounted. On one of the wagons, the manhole cover is glued askew.
The wheels have a conforming core. The brake equipment is present, including the transmission linkage. The valves are perhaps missing a touch of blue.
There is a big discrepancy between the wheelbase marked on the chassis (6 m) and the real one. However, the real wagon shown in the photo has a wheelbase of 6.4 or 6.5 m, which would give the almost correct value for the scale model.
