Does anyone has this auto carrier? I Always found that it is a beauty but the model look very fragile and surely that we can not put models in white metal on it?

I do not have one, but have thought about buying it. I did not think about the fragile factor. If that trailer is all resin, I would not put white medal models on upper part. I have a structure for my model railroad using steel reinforced resin in side walls. I wonder if the trailer has any thing to make supports for upper part stronger.

I have one and didn’t find it to be overly fragile… although the railing across the top is delicate. But as others have stated, the weight of white metal models would likely take their toll over time.
