Model Railroading > Happy Fourth - patriotic flatcars

I have two – 8 axle flat cars  for my high wide fleet painted red, white and blue.  The inspiration for these two cars came  from a 12 axle flat car KRL 370365 Kasgro painted this car to remember  9/11.
 
These two cars  CHLX (Charleston Heavy Lift) 1776 and 1976 will be on future early 1980’s layout. These two cars will be  part of a fleet of over 100 flats and schnabel cars, servicing the port and the navy base. 
 
These two cars and their associated loads are 3D printed.
 
Still trying to figure out which loads to use for these cars. Loads still need decals and attached to the flat cars
 
1 – empty car
2 – rock crusher load
3 – generator load
