Cott Beverages USA
#1
In my seemingly never ending search for interesting industries for an ISL (and something that would fit with my car fleet), I found this Cott Beverages http://www.cott.com/ plant at 2525 Schuetz Road Maryland Heights, MO. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s...5&t=h&z=18

Nice simple yet interesting modern structure that receives tank cars and using "modelers license" could conceivably receive can stock and packaging materials by rail.    
You'll be quick to notice that an addition has been made to this facility that had to conform to the layout of the industrial spur and the street. Could be a good industry to fit in one of those corner locations on a layout where you can't figure out what to put there!

Here's a view of the siding serving the structure. Note the chain link fence and gate and the close clearance to the industrial spur. Also the two small storage tanks wedged into the area between the building and the track.    

Well back to the search!

It could be used to hide a 90 degree turn on a shelf layout.
