Grain Gondola Train Car

This is a very basic grain car that I built to work with my locomotives. It doesn't really serve a functional purpose in the game, but it was loosely inspired by the types of freight cars I actually worked on in a factory when I was still a welder. These types of cars were usually a combination of steel and aluminum and they were used to transport lighter materials like grain. They are loosely inspired by the real cars but mine have doors in the side walls where the real ones don't. There are ladders to climb up and inside the cars on both ends and on opposite corners. It was built to use the same coupling system that I used on all of my train cars and locomotives. There is a brake lever on the front to release the brakes on the car along with a panel to allow the brakes to be controlled remotely from a locomotive. There is also a switch to indicate which direction the powered vehicle is relative to the front of the current car. This allows transmitted data to be consistently passed through the entire length of the train and ensure that all powered wheels move in the same direction and at the same speed.
