Here's my next review video for all of you fine people!
Recently, these new items arrived and I was eager to get them out on the layout and make another review video. Here are some of the new 3-unit 53' Thrall Well Cars made by Walthers MainLine in HO Scale.
These cars are made with a die-cast body, which help them track very well, loaded or empty. The detail is acceptable for a MainLine item, though they could be spruced up a bit with some homemade coupler cut bars and Kadee Couplers.
To match with these well cars, I pre-ordered some ScaleTrains Operator 53' containers decorated for Walmart. I have seen these on the prototype for a while, and glad someone made them. However, I recently learned that Walmart sold their container operations to JB Hunt, so in time the real containers may get patched or repainted. At first glance, I thought these were a Rivet Counter series container. They are really nicely detailed!
They fit perfectly in the Walthers cars, and matched up with other brands of containers with no problem. So if you're in the market to expand your intermodal fleet, here's a great combination to consider!
Questions? Leave them down below!

I bought two sets of the Walthers articulated auto racks recently. They didn't roll well at all. The trucks' side frames are very cheap. But, once I dug around in the friction point where the wheels sit with a phillips screw driver, it greatly improved the free-rolling of the cars. They come with metal wheels and metal couplers, look pretty good, and overall, I like them.

When I received the Walmart containers, I was looking them over, and they looked great. I did notice they are kind of transparent? The light above the workbench seemed to bleed through the paint. Worst case I pop the bottom off and spray some black paint inside, or I could probably just disregard it ND move on. 😂 The containers did fit nicely in the older walthers well cars, so that was a plus.

"The body is die cast metal" "Very heavy"! Yes, finally metal well cars! I never bought the plastic ones. Someones needs to make diecast HO Scale everything. Cheaper than brass and will stay on track better.

Replace the wheels with Intermountain wheelsets, they will roll much better!
