Remarks & Notes |
Bay Line GP38 #511 is tied down on the spur serving Golden Peanut. This facility prepares "candy grade" peanuts for shipment all over the United States. These peanuts tend to be larger and tend to be whole nuts rather than halves. Covered hoppers and insulated box cars are used in this service and both car types are fumigated with insect poison before loading. #511 was built August 1969 as Penn Central #7749 |
