So do we think the covered hoppers these days are all peanuts or do we think they still get a few carloads of sugar? I had always presumed them all to be peanuts but your post about the sugar cars made me wonder if those cars on that second track back in the plant was a different commodity.
Its my understanding that the company in the Young warehouses that gets the plastic pellets is also associated with the peanut butter product perhaps providing jars ect? Thats also an interesting part of the line with boxcars spotted at a few of the doors and pellet cars in the part that is home to the plastic company. Would make an additional prototypical industry to model that would provide some interesting switching.
