Hi George, I made some neat mine cars once out of N scale gondola cars. I won't go into all of the details here but in essence I shortened the gondola to the length of an N scale archbar truck. Then I just ACC'd the truck under the shortened car. Makes a single truck 2 axel mine car. I used code 40 rail for the mine tracks and it really looked good against the HO mine. Of course the cars weren't the dumping kind and had to be unloaded by the "armstrong method" but once they were heavily weathered I was well pleased with them...Take Care....Vic
