. . . . . . .With all this container stuff on the market, no one to my 
knowledge has come up with a loading or unloading facility that works.  And 
why not a scale version of an operating mail car? . . . . . .

Raleigh's right, and if these operating cars and accessories could be made 
without too much compromise with realism, I think they'd be well accepted.. 
With DCC activating "bells & whistles" and a lot more, it ought not to be 
too hard.

There is a functioning container car loader made in HO, but in addition to 
being undersize for us, it uses only certain containers with magnets 
installed, I think, and it's very expensive.  Something like that, or a 
working piggy-packer, in S would be super, and if I live long enough (couple 
hundred years more), I will make one with little motors, servos, &c.
