Hello,
Wow! Lots of great ideas, guys, thanks! Now, I will agree with the idea that
real glass would look best, but we have cats, and I am *NOT* using real glass
around them. They *WILL* get into it, and they will get hurt, and then my wife
*WILL* kill me! ^OO^
I'm not too thrilled with the idea of cutting up tons of clear styrene. The
tempered glass idea is good, but I think I'll go with the idea to look through
the holiday stuff for "clear" fake snow chips.
Thanks for the glass block ideas though! I'd been thinking about that for a
while, and that was going to be question #2. ;)
I have to admit, the whole covered hopper idea had occurred to me. Thing is, I
only have 3 freight cars right now. 2 Gondolas, and one covered hopper, and I
want to use all three. I was also planning on modeling the recycling plant
on-line, the assumption being that the glass doesn't have to go very far, and
never leaves the "home road" rails. I could and probably will also use the
covered hopper for shipping wire to the glass plant (some older glass block has
wire reinforcement - they outlawed it about 5 years ago due to injury
problems).
