thanks for the input ya'll[:D][:D] I can't find any information on taconite (primary ore from misabe range), but galena has a density of about 7.5x that of water. the area where i am using as a loose reference was mined out in the 1950's. most of the ore was hauled underground by mule teams, then it was lifted up and some was smelted on site, and some was shipped off. nasty little things happened. don't know if anyone out there has heard of the tar creek epa superfund site, but there was a huge smelter there. but i diverge. i did find this link, but i will have to do some more hunting to figure out just what the heck these cars are. any additional information would be great!!! <br /> <br /> <br />http://kc.pennsyrr.com/model/ore.ws4d <br />
