The roster is designed to reflect the commodities carried, with coal, ores, iron and steel, stone and lumber being the largest commodities. Therefore open top cars dominate. I have also tried to make the home road the largest block of car, followed by the two direct interchanges (PRR and B&O) and then the lesser connections (NYC, LV) followed by the other roads. I would like each 10-15 car train to have at least 2 home road cars, one PRR and one B&O.
