Summary

After a remarkably long service life the old junkerath slag ladle cars ("Humpen") at ARBED in luxemburg did look a bit different after a number of modifications. After adding bigger ladles and new welded bogies sporting automatic couplers (and no buffers) it seems only the wheels and ladle tipping mechanism were left of the original cars...
This model was designed for use with some american freight car wheels, for static purposes printed wheels can be used, the file is included.
Kadee #17 couplers can be used, I put the nem coupler pocket a bit higher than it should be so coupler height is pretty much prototypical.

UPDATE: When using kadee couplers "properly", the sideways force from pushing cars with couplers pre-decoupled can derail the bogies sometimes. If you plan serious operation with kadee couplers please use the bogies, racks and coupler pockets marked "for kadee". When using these parts you connect the coupler pocket to the car frame rather than the bogie, eliminating the turning moment the bogie mounted kadee coupler exerts on the bogie.

I haven't printed this model yet, so best of luck when trying to print/assemble it!
