The West Local now serves one (and only one) industry...an aggregate plant at the far end of the Rocky Spur. If that plant goes belly up, it'll likely spell the end of the West Local. As it is, the train only runs on Wednesdays...and not every Wednesday! A pair of covered hoppers is all it had to bring back to North Yard on this day.
