Interior boxcar details

[Rscott417]

I picked up 2 boxcars from eBay, I'm going to assume they're both by Atlas (one came with no box but look very similar). I bought them not knowing both have operating doors so I decided I needed to do some sort of detail to show it off. I think I'll need to paint the inside walls grey and give them some weathering, at least the empty one if not both. They'll both be in paper roll service, so one will be loaded and one will be empty. I used American Model Builders wood decking for both floors. For the loaded car I used a set of Walthers paper rolls and might try to squeeze in another set so no matter the angle it looks full. I'm curious about what type of debris and left over junk would be found in an empty paper service boxcar. I know sometimes wood and air bags can be used for spacing and to protect the paper rolls but what would I use to simulate that? I was thinking maybe cling wrap for the air bags?



Here's an inside look of some debris but not sure it's left overs from paper service.

I came across this article and tried out the Glad Cling Wrap and some dunnage I had attached to some lumber loads <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://modeltrains.about.com/od/Open-Loads/ss/Detail-The-Interior-Of-A-Boxcar.htm#showall">http://modeltrains.about.com/od/Open-Lo ... tm#showall</a><!-- m -->
