Hi all I'm thinking about buying some Bowser Roadrailers and wanted to know if you guys recommend the kit or RTR? Also do they run well? They seem like a derail and stringline nightmare to me. THANKS

I think the biggest problem is proper weight that is all but I checked their website and they are sold out....so good luck in getting them.
I run a 50 car train of them without any problems. They were all kits built with stock weights and I added Intermountain 33" Semi Scale wheels to them. Just dont bump them as when one goes down they all go down. LOL
If interested in some let me know which ones as my source has them for around $10 each.
Is there a NMRA standard weight for these? I was going to ask if weights are included in the kits but it sounds like they are?
I dont have any problems at all
