Quote from: AlexanderJesse on June 04, 2025, 10:03:20 AMIf a Dairy/Creamery would be situated close to a bigger industry park (consisting of several smaller an larger industries), would it then make sense, that the industry park has a dedicated shunter which serves the Creamery as well.
That way you could every now and then add a non-creamery wagon to disturb the easy standard shunting activities
The only UK example I can think of that comes close to that scenario is the Manchester Ship Canal Company (MSC) internal railway which served multiple customers on the company property. They were all heavy industries though and a creamery wouldn't really comfortably sit along side...
