Tried it and while it is well designed and robust, unfortunately it did not work as designed through my Ross switches with DZ-1000 switch machines. Rotating cleaning pads did not clear the switch machine because the tie mounted DZ-1000 is slightly higher than the top of the rails.
Weaver graciously issued credit upon return of car. I would buy the car again if I was using a different switch/switch machine combination.

Thanks maa5344
I was thinking about getting this car, but I have all Ross switches on my layout.
This was good to know!

Has anyone else bought one of these, and how do you rate it.
I like the fact that Weaver makes these in their U.S. Factory to order, so you can choose your livery.
I use Fastrack, so the Ross Switch issue would not affect me.

Would be great to have a car like this! Unfortunately I would probably experience this same issue.
