Bob's Coal Loads

We have been providing coal and ballast loads for O gauge hopper and gondola cars.  They have become the product of choice for discriminating hobbyists.  Our loads are available in two styles, modern autoload and steam-era mounded loads, and are available to fit most every O gauge hopper and gondola car in past or current production by all manufacturers.  Our coal loads are in use on some of the most famous layouts in the country, as seen in magazines and videos.
