I don't have any tank cars or flatcars... Need to get some of those...Here's my rolling stock roster and their services on my layout...<ul><li>7 gondolas, a mix of pulpwood service, scrap metal, and one drop-end mill gon.</li><li>7 standard boxcars, most to Hyce Machinery, but some also go onto the DDWH interchange.</li><li>7 plug door boxcars, all in service to Agrawal Paper in Dooley.</li><li>5 reefers, all go onto the DDWH interchange at Dooley.</li><li>5 covered hoppers; a mix of grain and airslide hoppers for the DDWH, and two cement for New Poland Cement.</li><li> 1 standard hopper for sand service to New Poland Cement</li><li>1 double-door boxcar for the DDWH interchange.</li></ul>And for your reference, here's a list of the industries on the layout, sorted by town from East to West. West Formanek:- Delery Pulpwood, shipping pulpwood out in gondolasStude: - Kimball Recycling, receiving scrap metal by gondola and shipping out finished steel rolls in gondolas.Dooley: - Agrawal Paper, shipping out paper in plug door boxcars.

New Poland:- New Poland Cement, receiving covered hoppers of dry cement and hoppers of sand.- Hyce Machinery, shipping and receiving machinery in standard boxcars.White River Junction doesn't have any industries, just a yard, although the engine servicing tracks are across the yard lead from Hyce Machinery... And the car shop (recently added, right up against the backdrop) does receive any faulty cars, either by the yard job or the 0-5-0...
