Sulfur loads for Intermountain cars

Model Railroader General Discussion (Model Railroader)

Hi all, I need some help. I’ve looked high and low, on the web and in the books but I still can’t find what I’m looking for.

I need sulfur loads for my Intermountain bathtub gondolas. I hear that sulfur loads are not manufactured but I hear that I can buy some coal loads that fit the Intermountain cars and paint them the appropriate color but I can’t seem to find who makes them.

Any help will be very much appreciated.

Try Chooch Enterprises, Inc. They make a variety of loads that will fit specific Mfgr’s cars. Sorry, I don’t have a website for them off hand, but I know that Walthers distributes them. I know they make a variety of coal-load castings for various hoppers from various mfgrs, and they’re really nicely detailed (and also add needed weight). The loads generally come in a 2-pack.

Chooch might not be of assistance. Here’s a link to their loads; they have a coal load for the Walther’s cars, but not InterMountain.
