I would like to know what current or future production HO coal loads would fit into the HO Intermountain bathtub coal gondola. I recently bought a HO CP Rail gondola, but not the load that fits the car. Possible loads are the CM Shops HO Roundhouse bathtub gondola loads which might fit the Intermountain car since they are similar. (The transition era to modern era former MDC-Roundhouse HO freight cars are now produced by Athearn). Another company with HO Loads is Hay Brothers Garage (not listed in the Walthers Catalog or on the Walthers Website, since they are a smaller company). They have the molds for the HO Intermountain bathtub gondola load but not the load itself in stock (they would be glad to make a batch of HO coal loads for the HO Intermountain bathtub gondola).

Do you have the dimensions on that car (l x w). I have loads for the roundhouse cars and they are dimensioned at 1 9/32 x 6 7/16. this should give you some idea if they will fit or not. For more dimensions on the loads I carry there is a link on the bottom of the coal loads page on my web site. It is not complete but, has most of what I have in stock.
