Thanks very much everyone. I'll read the links and do some more research. I know there are end loaded gondolas too which I'll need to research.
Larry I will have to google backhoe.... Might leave it until I am. It on my emoloyer's wifi though just in case;-)
I guess I wad separating the team track from modern transload. Am I right thinking the former miggt be used for businesses within an industrial park that don't get direct rail service but will just shift it across a road to their building by forklift rather than a truck container to go a few miles? In thinknh modelling non-rail served but still using rail and modelled on the layout. I don't necessarily want to model lots of container trucks with the final destination off layout. But still exploring options so far. I'm not against transload:-)
