Gondolas?

[eightyeightfan1]

Since your doing a modern layout, here's an idea. How about a company that makes bases or towers for those wind powered generators? Steel plates could come in gondolas, and your company, maybe the biggest employer in your town, could roll or fabricate major sub-assemblies for wind powered generators, such as the towers. Sub-assemblies could be shipped out in gondolas.
Just because its a small town, doesen't mean a small company didn't win a big contract.
Hmmm....I just gave myself an idea....
