That's a possibility, but not sure what they'd be receiving in box cars other than maybe packaging materials (I'm thinking in the modern era here). Probably wouldn't ship out much in box cars either, but is possible. Big drawback here for me is that unless they are producing their own flour from bulk wheat, etc., flour is shipped in AirSlide or other type pneumatic/pressure differential discharge covered hoppers and I don't have any!!

I think they still ship bags of grain in boxcars, I think a bakery would also receive various frostings other and ingredients in boxcars.

Oh, and If you need Airslide hoppers I found some for you:http://www.modeltrainstuff.com/Walthers-...240556.htm
