Handled as a molten liquid in special ladles aboard purpose-built slag cars, its hauled from the furnaces to dumping areas.

When cool, it's reclaimed for use by the construction industry.

Big fleets of cars are needed to keep up, as a typical furnaces produces _ ton of slag for every ton of pig iron.

This upgraded model is typical of cars at operations large and small, and features a separate ladle and details to simulate the dump mechanism.
