Loading doors for Tom

Tom,

I can't find any of the shots of rail doors, but here are two truck bays. My memory may have been wrong about the rattiness of the bottoms.

Very interesting how the concrete blocks in the lower pic are not staggered. Kind of surprising...

Tom, I -can- get you some shots (unless there's boxcars blocking) at a paper facility
here in town-actually...here's a a few very slight shots:

Obviously I've went for the cars. (go figure-the days I went up there & there
weren't any cars, I turned around & left-could've gotten great pics.)

Let me know if you're still in need-I'll check things out this weekend.

We have a few spots down at the newspaper that have stacked blocks like that. They are sections of wall that can be removed to get equipment in and out.

Hey, I just realized there were white-painted blocks in there too. Two birds...
