Later that week, I got chance to get down to Old Goldern Black again. The flat car and 60' boxcar have gone, but to my surprise two UP GP35's turned up. 1280x960 2006-04-14 16:48:04 |

...with the empty covered hopper. 1280x960 2006-04-14 16:52:11 |
Which gave me time to take some photos of Old Golden Black Industries. Here we see the flour silos and main production area. Sugar, which arrives in tank cars, is unloaded under the main building and lifted up the elevator. To the right is part of the goods in warehouse, which mainly sees boxcars. 1280x960 2006-04-14 16:52:56 |
Here is the old goods out or distribution warehouse which is no longer rail served. 1280x960 2006-04-14 16:53:03 |
Here is the new distribution centre and old rail bridge. 1280x960 2006-04-14 16:53:08 |
