Old tooling dates this kit as with all of Dapols KitMaster range. Great for beginners ( this is for my 6 y.o. grandson to build ) The plastic is slightly softer and works easily with a liquid adhesive and does need a primer coat to get the best results with water based paints. Comes with metal wheels on insulated axles, but there's not many options to add weight only by hiding it inside the stalls.

This kit has been around since the "Airfix" days and I have made several over the years. A simple model to build with a good level of detail. Nowadays the kit comes with decent wheel sets unlike some of the competition which can also be fiddly to put together. I have achieved excellent results using matt paints and then finished with a satin varnish.

Good little kit to get started on. Some parts have "flash" on them but to be expected as it's old tooling and it's easy enough to remove. I've enjoyed making this kit.

great kit although the tools must be 60 years old but it looks good and is running well

A detailed model at a reasonable price, due to the age of the tooling a little extra work is required to trim some parts to look 100%. Now have 3 Dapol kit bodies and all look very good when completed.
