Arizona Rock & Mineral (and others) has many grades and colors of sand. I have used same for loads, loco sand on my ready tracks, and at the sandhouse. Elden Gatwood

Hi all, What product do you use for making an HO scale sand load in a gondola? I don't want to use any kind of food product (such as flour). I'm willing to color it with paint and washes. The only commercial product I'm finding is the one by Motrak. That one might work - but it is white and would require color changes. And all of the sources I've been able to find want as much or more to ship it as the load costs! This is to represent "sand being delivered to an engine facility for RR use such as for locomotives" - the sand seen at a sand tower. It will go in an Intermountain ATSF Caswell gondola (if that makes a difference). - Jim B.
