How to Add Weight to Your Freight Cars

I am upgrading the freight cars on my N-scale model railroad. In this video, I show you how I am adding weight to them. I feel that adding weight to them reduces the likelihood of derailments. It reduces the bouncy or jerky movements of the cars. And it helps create the illusion that the cars are massive and heavy, just like real freight cars. Why might you want to upgrade your freight cars, as I am doing? Very simply: to make them run better and look more realistic. Let me show you how I'm doing it.
