. . . . . . .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.
