40' Composite Mill Gondola

Description
Early-Mid 20th Century Gondolas!
These cars are based on the PRR GRa class and similar cars used by many other railroads, especially those in the industrialized Northeast and Midwest. Essentially a steel flat car with low wooden sides and drop-ends, these cars were used for all sorts of loads that didn't need to be protected from weather and were too bulky to load into boxcars such as structural steel and rough cut lumber. The type was common in service through WWII with some lasting into the early 60's.

What's in the pack?
This pack includes 25 skins, including a generic colorable version. There's also a randomized variant which will mix up which of the real railroad skins show up on your train. Skins include:
  • Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe
  • Baltimore & Ohio
  • Canadian National
  • Canadian Pacific
  • Central New Jersey, "Fried Egg" scheme
  • Central New Jersey, "Liberty" scheme
  • Delaware & Hudson
  • Delaware Lackawanna & Western
  • Erie
  • Great Northern
  • Long Island
  • Maine Central
  • Michigan Central
  • Milwaukee Road
  • Missouri-Kansas-Texas
  • New York Central
  • New York New Haven & Hartford
  • Nickel Plate Road
  • Northern Pacific
  • Pennsylvania, original scheme
  • Pennsylvania, "Lines West" scheme
  • Pennsylvania, "Circle Keystone" scheme
  • Pittsburgh & Lake Erie
  • Reading

These cars use my new custom loads, so you will need to get the dependency mod "20th Century Custom Loads".

Stats:
These cars fall right in between the existing vanilla stake cars.
Top Speed: 65 mph
Capacity: 13
Cargo Types: Logs, Planks, Construction Materials, Steel
Weight: 23 tons
Available: 1907-1960

Great cars! many thanks! Do you consider maybe have additional loads? like other arranged planks so its getting mixed up even more as with the skins?

I was transporting lumber in a game yesterday, so I understand this very well.
The thing to look out for, and for those who haven't noticed, is the shape of the cargo.
Was the lumber delivered in this shape? Wasn't the steel shiny? I like the rusty look. Thank you.
