I've posted in the past about a small tank manufacturer in Los Angeles. A similar industry could be found almost anywhere. The tanks they make look like they are for compressed air for industry. The actual plant is not much larger than a large gas station, but they receive three gons loaded with steel every couple of weeks. They send out one gon loaded with scrap cuttings about the same time that the railroad brings in another three loads. They may have slowed down during this recession, but you certainly don't need to model a recession.
