No, this isn't about Mizzy's bunny wabbits?
 
I like to run my rake of hoppers wagons on the LGB, so I liked this video:

I recently did a stock exchange of a Silberhutte hopper for a OEG version with Whatlep. I've made loads for mine (kitty litter), but I also like the weathering that Mel's done to his empty W&GLR ones.

Looks like this chap here has weathered half his rake of 10, but they still look great behind the HSB 2-10-2....
