My “BarbaPanagos” inspired wagons from Roco finally arrived in Canada. Thanks to this forum, I don’t have to wonder if the prototype ever ran in Greece :D

Hi John, thanks for your comment :D, I acquired them from erail this morning.
They both look great but unfortunately ROCO have messed things a bit...

Roco 77486, CD Cargo 21 54 245 7 060-8 Hbbillns, is indeed based on one of my photos, numbering and markings are right.
Though the photo used at their catalog is not the right one. It is instead used to show Roco 77485!

Roco 77485 models an AAE wagon that is not based at any of the photos (six in total) that I had send them.
It's still useful as many AAE slide wall wagons are coming down here.

Let's hope we'll have some more models based on my photos at the future ;)
