I just figure that if Justin ran at 50% capacity of his sidings, then it would mean a maximum of 6 cars inbound for his operating sessions. I would run with a minimum of 4 cars and roll dice to figure how many would be used for the operating session.

Hi ya Mike!
That's the same number of inbound/outbound cars for a session that I figured too. Since his Consolidated Container plant is a very rail intensive facility, probably 5 cars would be destined to that one plant, with maybe 1 for Eagle Foods which would not necessarily be a daily operation. Not every one of the inbound cars would spot, as some would be held for later unloading and of course some empties held for reloading with the scrap paper. With having to place/pull/re-spot/hold cars at Consolidated it should take a fair amount of time just to work that one industry.
