I have some Trainworx 100T Quad hoppers, and I'd like to run a few as empty cars (without loads). They're the 'made in China' version, with thick metal pieces glued onto the inside of the slope sheets for weight. I tried prying out the metal weights, but they are glued in very tightly and I'm afraid I'll damage the car if I try any harder.
Does anyone have any experience with removing these weights and adding a more inconspicuous weight so that they don't look so out-of-place if run without the load? I know I could paint the weights a similar color as the body, but I'm just wondering if there are any other options.
Thanks!
