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).
