How do you load TOFC Flatcars with 40' Container Loads ?

How can you load TTX 89ft TOFC Flatcars with 40' Container Loads?

I've done it once - obviously by accident, because I can't seem to do it again.

Running TS12, Build 49922, and was using the NEC Wilmington Route. Added a TTX 89 ft TOFC Flatcar and within Surveyer, in Train Properties, clicked on the "+" symbol in the Load menu and it brought up a Products menu full of options. I seem to recall it had a multitude of selections - 40' Containers, 20' Containers, Wood, etc. I somehow selected 40' containers, and was good to go.

Now, in this same Route (and all others), the Products menu within Properties in blank and doesn't seem to allow me to add anything. The only loads that are listed under Properties are trailers (40', 48', 53'), but no containers.

Any thoughts of what I am doing wrong and how do you load the flatcar with containers?

Firstly, are you sure it's the same 89' flat car as last time? IIRC I have some that are set up for containers or trailers and some that are trailers only.

Even if not set by default though it should still be possible to add 'extra' loads to the list although there are a couple of other threads on 'blank' lists in TS12 when trying to add to the default list....

Thanks for the lead Dermmy. I fixed it. I had a commodity downloaded that had a faulty dependency. Deleted that item in CM, now my Products menu is full again and flatcars load with all kinds of stuff.

Thanks for your help.
