RE: (erielack) Con Agra

Mike,

Con Agra purchased the Martins Creek Portland Cement Plant in Martin Creek,
PA for the purpose of storing grain in silos.  This is on the Bangor and
Portland Branch.  During the 70's they got 54 car unit grain trains.

The grain storage facility is still operating under Cargill and is serviced
by the NS.  RailPace published an article on the B&P in the March 2001 issue
which covered the current and past operation of the branch.

 not sure where in the EL days, but today ConAgra HQ is in Omaha, Nebraska.
But they're one of those companies who own like hundreds of other brands.

Listers, where is Con Agra located (City/State)? Also about how many cars
were spotted there during EL days?
