Thanks Chief

[@pacogarciacarnero6815]

Beautiful oil tanker cars look great in compositions of 8 or 10 units, which is what a lovomotora usually has around here.
Greetings happy summer 1 like 👍

[@DiggerEvans]

Thank you so much Paco I think I have seven of these now.

[@ModelRailwayShed]

Wow really nice fuel tankers Digger!
Take care all the best

[@DiggerEvans]

Cheers Deano they were great value for money too

[@DYLINGTONMODELRAILWAY]

Nice additions, Digger. They'd certainly carry some custard 😁...cheers James 🙂👍

[@DiggerEvans]

Definitely good for carrying custard

[@crabbersuniquescalemodels9996]

Nice buy buddy. Greetings from West Yorkshire. Hope you are all fit and well.

[@DiggerEvans]

Hiya Crabbers my friend all good here, i hope you and your family are all well?

[@monsvillerailways5736]

Good buy Digger.
I'm sure you'll do a great job on the weathering.
Hi to Jimmy. 😅

[@DiggerEvans]

Thanks Mon, Jimmy is a ruddy nuisance

[@TwistedMacGyversTrains]

Very nice tankers Digger! They are going to look awesome once you get them all weathered up. I’ve never seen those type of couplers before with that bar. 👍

[@DiggerEvans]

Thank you yeah they're the old style tension lock couplers, they don't look too great really

[@TwistedMacGyversTrains]

I can’t wait to see them running on your layout. I bought some really old Marx manual switches and I’m having major issues with them.

[@DiggerEvans]

wow i hope you can get them figured out

[@TwistedMacGyversTrains]

@@DiggerEvansI’ll probably wind up swapping them out for a different track system. Have a great night & weekend Digger!

[@tanzj]

Nice new cars for your layout Digger….😊

[@DiggerEvans]

Thanks John just need a little weathering dirt and they'll be good to go

[@DiggerEvans]

Thank you my friend

[@delphjunction1168]

Hi Digger.
Great looking tankers.
Think I favour freight over passenger at the moment.
Thanks for showing us buddy.
Thumbs up thumped 👍
.... Pete....

[@DiggerEvans]

Many thanks, i'm heavily on the side of freight these days although i have coneded some track space to a pacer for those who insist on rail travel.

[@Dabs851]

Brilliant Digger, so many people neglect freight over passenger services

[@DiggerEvans]

Thank you I agree there's too much passenger services in the model world freight rules passenger drools ha ha

[@modelrailwaynoob]

They look fab. I wouldn't mind some myself.

[@DiggerEvans]

They are nice tankers, keep an eye out on market place etc.. they sometimes appear for sale there as well

[@DruSteel69]

Very nice tankers, Digger. Have fun weathering them. 😎👍🏼

[@DiggerEvans]

Thanks i'm hoping to make them look a little used

[@DruSteel69]

@@DiggerEvans Oh you will. 🤓👍🏼

[@JerseyBill-x9r]

It is odd for me to see an American style tanker without knuckle couplers, but they do look good and for a steal $20. Great find and video, Jersey Bill

[@DiggerEvans]

Thanks Bill

[@Andreas-Frank_Pohlert]

Very nice video my friend Digger.
Thank You and Thumbs Up.
Many Greetings
Andreas

[@DiggerEvans]

Thank you Andreas

[@TriGogglin]

Really nice addition Digger, gonna look great on the new layout

[@DiggerEvans]

Thanks Pappy

[@MichaelDavies-pg8td]

I like Jimmy 😂 I have a few of the Lima tankers myself,they go round my layout lovely,even with it’s tight curves and s bends.

[@DiggerEvans]

They are a great piece of rolling stock I agree, Jimmy is generally a good chap but if he knows i'm making a video he really get his beak into action

[@StormySkyRailProductions]

Another cool video. Have a wonderful upcoming weekend. Steve

[@DiggerEvans]

Cheers Steve

[@StormySkyRailProductions]

@@DiggerEvans thank you very much also.

[@KerleyExpress]

😮😮 nice looking are those the kind of couplers you use I never seen any like that before 😮😮

[@DiggerEvans]

Thanks Dwight they are the older type tension lock couplings without nem pockets so they can't readily be switched out for better ones, I have a few wagons with these couplings and it's on my to do list to switch them all over to magnetic couplers that i printed myself

[@marypettyfer4640]

Hey digger I was watching a video sobbing and there in the comments Digger Evans you didn't know but that made me smile😊❤

[@DiggerEvans]

Oh that's wonderful I do hope the video wasn't upsetting?
