This simple, subtle open freight wagon can be used in all sorts of scenarios and works for both a mixed freight train as well as a full consist of only these wagons. It can also be mixed inbetween some of the open freight wagon for sugar beets, making for a more interesting train overall.

Please be aware that the height of the buffer is 2 plates above the standard height for a more realistic appearance, therefor the magnet is higher as well. Getting the buffer piece to be lower will need a bit of modificiation but should not be difficult. The minimum radius might be smaller than R104 but that was not tested by me.

This simple open freight wagon was mostly used in long consists to move harvested sugar beets. The model is build approx. in 1:45 scale and uses no custom pieces.
