[quote user="E-L man tom"] Ad to that list: automobile parts manufacturing plant (small, brake parts, etc., or large, auto frames, etc) produce packing houses (if early enough, ice bunkers for the reefer cars are used here too) general consignment warehuses (generally, a freight storage and transfer station) by the way, concrete (or cement) plants do not have to be especially large to be served by rail. There is one local to me that, if selectively compressed, would be quite believable. This plant takes on probably 20 or so covered hoppers (the short ones) per week. They do not take any boxcars, as all cement produced there is bulk. You could, however, maximize the diversity of car types being used by having some product being produced in bulk as well as bagged, thus taking both covered hoppers and boxcars. Walthers makes the Medusa Cement Plant that could be kitbashed and/or added on to, to your liking. That, I think, would be a fun project! <div style="clear:both;"></div> [/quote]   Wow either I saw a video about of some men loading cement or something else. All I do remember is some men loading a boxcar that appear to be either cement or flour to be honest lol.   But like the saying goes, you learn something everyday.
