The cars are being stored, and they are filled with plastic pellets. The customer who receives the cars is located 1/4 mile from this location. The customer manufacturers plastic bags.
That yellow flat car with the crain at the end, Was used to lay down the tracks when they needed to be repaired, but this was taking out of service once they got a rail car that did more then just lay down rails. this was supossed to be restored a few years ago but they forgot all about it, so now it just sits there :(
Those tracks are still live, they run tours on them a few times a year in the summer, the white cars are still used although they are not used often, i know they have been moved a few times, they are stored there, they have been stored there for as long as i have known about them, roughly 15 years.
The white cars are used to haul small plastic pellets. They are sucked up from the top by a large hose. I dont't believe they are abandoned. The RR's will sometimes park old rail cars on tracks for tax reasons.
