Coal load for gondolas

Posted by Sturgeon-Phish on Thursday, August 10, 2006 4:20 PM

I tried something to simulate coal loads in my open gondolas it's cheap easy looks great and I wanted to share it.

I took the white simi rigid foam cut it to fit in the gons, tapered the sides letting the irregular texture stay then painted them with acrylic paint. Very realistic. It looks great I think. Very light too.
