Start Content Manager and set the Search Panel to Asset KUID - kuid2:30671:9110100:1, right click it and select View Dependent Assets then click the View in main list button. The main panel will now display all assets that are set up to carry flour.

Thanks Bob i didn't know that.
Now to set a car up to load a product. I always clone the car that i want to change.After that i have the KUID # of the product i want to use jotted down.
Now open the cloned car with edit in explorer,open config file by double clicking on it.Now if you want this car to carry 1 product then remove all the products below quene 0 in this add the kuid # of the product you want to use.
Now go to the kuid-table and remove the kuid # of the products you remove and add the new one.You will want to change the name of the asset.(like flour hopper) You also want to keep the name short so when you give a command to couple to this car that the name will appeer in the list of cars.
Close, save,close again now right click on the cloned car go down to edit down to commit click.
Now if you want your product to be the default product then just remove the kuid # in queues/load 0 and add yours be sure youn add yours to kuid-table. and your asset name.

In TS12 use the "IC Airslide".

It loads flour and a whole heap more.

Another way to ship flour

This may not appeal to you but here is what I have done to ship flour from the flour mill to the bakery - use the commodity "flour bag pallet". This is a commodity that can be used with "multiple industry - new"

Now find a flatcar that will handle flour bag pallets. I am using:
"SAR FBX Flatcar no stakes 3" but I'm sure you could find others.

I went this way because I like seeing the pallets with the flour bags on a flatcar, although it probably is not the most realistic way to ship flour.

Start Trainz. Select your route and then select your session or select create session. In Surveyor select the Trains Tab (or press F) and find the IC Airslide Hopper. Place one on the track then click on the Edit Properties ? (or press P) click on the Hopper. The allowed products will be displayed as icons. Select flour (the whitest square) and click the 0 by the Units and set the value (64000 max). Click the check marks to exit. Select quick drive to test your settings. In Driver, point to the hopper and Ctrl + right click and select View Details to see the amount of the load.
