Interesting Rail Transfer Design

Opening on A&W, Conway, SC (G&W line). Now that Shapeways is doing dry bulk trailers, this kind of set becomes feasible. Great space filler for the end of the oval (usually seems to be a round house), especially for current day modelers.

Found it.  https://goo.gl/maps/QLKmr9rGs5T2

Would make for a very simple scene/industry on even a small layout!  Yes, perfect use for the CG N Scale Dry Bulk Trailers on Shapeways.  :)

A search using the address shows it's an operation run by Kinder Morgan, and they transfer roofing granules .
