How represent peat as a load

[Andreas]

Hello everyone,
I would like to represent peat as a load in my trolleys.
Does anyone have any idea how I can represent this on a scale of 1:22.5 (garden railroad)?

Thanks

dried and crumbled content of used coffee filters?

Another possibility would be the dust in Tea bag boxes.

Try this for size:

So fine brown grains, or for more practical purposes, a textured lump coloured an unmentionable shade of brown

So coffee-grounds, would look to be the answer?

Do you know any Barrista's?

Yes, strangely enough. Or at least the amount of times he was in court, he might just have well have been

Hello everyone,
Thank you for your information and ideas. I had not expressed myself clearly. I meant peat sods. In other words, the “lumps” that have been cut.

Dense foam, could be cut into 'sods' stuck together, then dressed with the coffee grounds, perhaps?

There appears to be a market for the "smell of Irish peat", satisfied by a number of sellers on Etsy supplying small bits of the real thing . . .



Strangely (!), none of them tell you what scale their turfs are!

Best wishes

I was thinking along those lines, corrugated cardboard would also work with tea grounds as I earlier mentioned as an alternative, ye possibly complementary option to PhilP ’s option.
