Back in the day of Conrail I did a lot of video along the CR/NS mainline around the Conway yards. Several times I saw gondolas with RR scrap in them and it was pretty neat. Got one of part of a switcher cab and boxcar sides and laying flat like pieces of a model. Then there was the heavier scrap- wheels, axles and truck parts. Always thought that would make a good scrap load. I also have taken heavy foil, mostly from food packaging and cut it in strips to look like scrap stainless steel.
