Adding a load

One thing which is noticeable about Eskalon is that nothing is actually being carried at the moment, the passenger coaches are empty as are the trucks! I've rectified the latter with respect to my open wagon adding a coal load. A technique i've tried is to glue the "coal" onto cardboard and then insert this into the wagon instead of having the load loose (a disaster waiting to happen) or gluing it to the wagon itself. In theory this should mean removing the load easier if i need to do it in future. I think it looks pretty good so will try this on some of the industrial wagons too.
