Small Batch, Limited Runs
Each run has fewer than 100 units pe variation. Once a variation is gone, it's gone for the foreseeable future.
I recently received several spiral chemical and petroleum tank cars. Vary happy with them.
No rolling or opening issues. I do plan on purchasing again when a new product comes out

Graet job 10 out of ten
Labeling on car is incorrectly spelled (both sides), car was incorrectly manufactured without weights inside tank (very hard to add now), trucks are both very loose, wrong coupler style for this type of LPG tanker.
To all who unfortunately purchased and received these spiral tank cars, a set of new decals, car weights, and couplers should be sent by Roka.

the model is an excellent reproduction of the Prototype although there are 2 issues, primarily the cars were assembled with insufficient weight and non double shelf couplers. I replaced the Kadee 5 couplers with Kadee 119 Double shelf couplers, and the weight issue was resolved by gently removing the Tank fill hatch by gently pulling upwards (i recommend putting a towel on your lap or working surface as the hatch may fly away when the glue lets loose), i poured 2.2oz of lead shot (available from a gun supply or sporting goods store) down the hatch hole, then squirted a good amount of ACC (superglue) i then moved the car back and forth until the shot was stuck to the glue with no stray pellets rattling around, after verifying a weight of 5.5 to 5.6 Oz i placed the tank hatch back on with a dab of glue, noting the inside locating notch position with the notch on car body, I then let the cars sit in an upright position overnight to let the glue cure
