Industries with tank cars

[doctorwayne]

I also have another area on the layout with two spurs, and Im not completly sure what will go here, but would there be a need for a tank car at a paper plant?

There is a "slurry", the name of which I can't remember at this moment, that is used to coat paper for some printing purposes. It's transported in tank cars.

That would be kaolin, Pete, a type of clay. At one time, it also moved in boxcars and, I believe, covered hoppers, although obviously not as a slurry.
