A rail served lumber yard is even more rare than a depot. We (Downers Grove, IL) lost our years ago.

And the Dart Container Corporation to the east has five railroad sidings. Most of the cars are covered hoppers, probably carrying plastic pellets. But on the west side is a couple of tank cars.

And west of the depot is another rail served industry. It appears that it makes rather big plastic pipes.
