Reinhard,Be careful of "experts".. America is a large country with lots of large cities that still have rail served industries like yours. It would be impossible to say what may or may not exist in these large cities.
As a point.. For years I always said the Pikestuff warehouse was to small for rail service..
A You Tube video proved me wrong.. While not a warehouse there is a transload building with two tracks that goes to the inside the building and guess what? Its not much bigger then the Pikestuff warehouse. If I ever find this video again I will post it.
Between researching You Tube, Google and Bing maps for industries I found I'm learning there is a lot of older industries left in this country and that there are hundreds of small industries that has storage tanks for unloading covered hoppers or tank cars.
