At Salute, Renedra released their injection moulded 20 and 40 foot containers (plus barrels and pallets).
I bought two of their 20 foot container packs.
Each container requires three sprues - top and bottom sprue; sides sprue; end and doors sprue.
What is not clear from the instructions is that the sides sit on top of the base, not on the outside. The fit is good once you work out how the bits go together, however there is no assistance in holding the walls together (it does require at least three hands to balance them).
Once assembled, it looks like a corrugated container.
A nice detail is their is a ventilator on one side.
The end brackets - which in real life are used to attach them to a wagon or lorry, or to hold them together when stacking - are lacking in detail, and the normal slots (which are used by the big fork lid trucks) are missing. However, these are gaming pieces and not model railway
The door detail is good, and the doors open and the interior walls are detailed.
This one has been undercoated with Citadel Chaos Black spray, then Citadel Corax White.
I do need to get some suitable decals, probably from model railway suppliers.

Of course, there is always a need for something to carry it.
I am thinking of trying to extend a Crooked Dice Tortuga lorry. The container fits in the flat bed. I could probably do with another set of wheels as well as extending the frames.
