Your story reminds me of one that I read (in Branchlines?) quite a few years ago.
The Olde Hide House in Acton* (back when it was a real tannery) had to scrape bits of whatever off the inside of the hides before tanning. The scrapings were collected and shipped to someplace in the Niagara Peninsula. The stuff was shipped in open gondolas -- I picture wooden ones -- and it stank, crawled with beasties, and was generally an unpleasant duty.





* it's worth the drive to Acton!

I remember those ads... I was in Orangeville at the time! Wink

We have a guy at the modular club who has modelled such a gondola. Eek Big Grin
