Big OOOPS! on my part as I re-read the original post about Toolworld. The railroad theme comes from the fact that half of the main building is the old Seaboard Coast Line freight shed for Eustis, which only adds to the flavor of it all. I would still stick to the pneumatic hoppers bringing in gypsum/plaster etc rather than paint pigments, unless it was a bulk paint base ingredient. One paint manufacturer I `surfed up' a few years ago had rail sidings for several tank cars stenciled with "titanium dioxide". Pigments would be more likely to be trucked in as from my limited knowledge they are normally pretty concentrated. However people with a greater knowledge of the paint business could well correct me.
