So they unload from the top by vacuuming the contents out

Not a vacuum,it simply breaks up the materials for easier unloading. Seen backhoe's mounted on a platform doing the same thing.

Re: Cadillac CARHOE video
So a Carhoe, a new building and a new spur were all added recently. Nice to see this business growing along with the associated rail traffic.

Re: Cadillac CARHOE video
I'm looking at a recent Google View. It looks like they are unloading feed on the east track (which is what Wyoming Warehouse sells) and coke on the west track. I'm pretty sure its coke and not cottonseed because cottonseed is unloaded from the ends of the car and these are being unloaded from the chutes underneath. The coke transload in Selma Yard looks unused but there are 10 cars of coke in Selma Yard.
Anyone know what's going on with the coke service?

Re: Cadillac CARHOE video
The images are fairly old,and the Coke shifted to the Wyoming feed location. Fairly certain all the coke now goes to Cadillac Castings across the tracks. East Jordan Iron Works was the other user,they opened their new mill and no longer use coke. Probably not right on all that,someone can correct me if I'm wrong lol.
