True on the cans Larry. I should have said can stock. Plastic cans can come in box cars though. Pigments can be sent in covered hoppers though. We're talking a big paint operation here. I was told by someone that worked at Dow Chemical in Delaware that it received a lot of it's paint ingredients by rail. I wish that I can double check with him, but he's no longer with us.
