Hello - does anyone have a method to safely remove the MTH Railking gondola junk load? It’s heavy, made out of ceramic (?), and stuck. No amount of banging, twisting or prying has been able to release it. Thx for reading.

Sounds like the plastic shrank a bit or the load swelled up. You might try a shallow pan of hot water and placing the car in it upside down enough to cover the body and the load, but not the trucks and maybe the shell will soften enough to let go of the load.
Good idea, Matt. Thanks. Will give it a try.
Are you the original owner? IOW, have you ever had the load removed?
If you're the second (+) owner, it might be 'gooed' into a permanent load.
You could bore a couple small holes from the bottom of the floor through which you could add an encouraging 'poker' to assist, perhaps?
In any case, if you're successful in removing it, let us know what worked. There might be others in the same pickle.
