@ Romanmodels - thanks
The inevitable shock absorbers and couplings. They follow traditional Modelik practice.

The boxy wagon inner walls are reinforced with 1mm card. The rivets extend almost to the limits and I had to make some corrections because they collided at the corners!

Really had to zoom in to the picture to find the rivets but I understand what you mean. Lot of work! Very neat undercarriage Ricardo. Are you going to add a bit of weathering to the inside of the wagon as it looks very, very clean.....

It will be fresh from the factory, Erik. 0km

I hesitated about putting rivets in the inner wall faces. However, as the doors open and I intend to make the roof detachable…
Regarding the outer faces, I had to paint some rivets and, worse than that, parts of some rivets, as they are in the middle of the lettering. As usual, I used a pen. It was a risky task because the paper takes too much ink very easily.

I think a more important question is, are you going to add a bit of beer inside of the wagon?

There is a quite sizy wooden barrel sample in the Sklej Model's sailship deck Armata 42 Funtowa. It just has to be multiplied. But maybe metal barrels were used then too.

I wonder if beer and paper make a good mix
@Kriszme - hmm, I have to check it out...

I find the vigilante’s compartment cute. I changed a bit the door mechanism to make it operational. The second picture shows the roof access hatches.
