The biggest slabs transported by rail would be fairly modestly-sized ones, of perhaps 20 tonnes. You could model these using plasticard sheet, cut to size and painted with steel or gunmetal grey, perhaps with a bit of rust. Don't forget to put on markings (generally aerosoled on these days) representing the batch number and date.

Here's a nice view of a BBA with three slabs of about 20t each:- https://ukrailwaypics.smugmug.com/UKRailRollingstock/B-tops-codes/BBA-bogie-steel-flats/i-dXVXqrH/A

From doors.

 

I've had to replace some interior doors in the house. When I removed the handles, I discovered that each door had a piece of square metal bar inside the door linking the two handles, these just push out. The bars are excellent for waggon loads.
