wood pulp unloading
- How would pulp be shipped to a converting paper mill in the 1950's-1960's? I want to set up an unloading point to receive pulp. What would the product look like and how would it have been handled? I'm assuming it would arrive aboard boxcars or maybe even empty-return reefers.
off-topic question about gluing
*** This is an off-topic question about gluing ***
I know this isn't technically train -related but my kid has a toy car, one of those large plastic tonka police car/trucks, that he absolutely loves and he's broken the back wheel off the axle. I tried gluing it back together with epoxy cement but it was only a few days before he broke it again... is there anything else I might try to fix this or is it history ?
Thanks
John

On30 Tips, Ideas, & Pictures
At Doug's request for some ideas, tips, and pictures I've started this thread.
I modeled both in O and HO scale for a while now and have a few months back decided I needed to stick to one scale in order to get anything finished model wise. Here are some pictures of a project I started but never finished. It's a set of nine On30 wooden boxcars.
