Clackamas industrial district

The UP continues the Southern Pacific's Clackamas Switcher.  South of Portland on the valley main, we have an extensive industrial area.

Industries I can see on the Google Maps overhead include

* a Safeway distribution center.  The overhead shows a lone covered hopper spotted here

* a warehouse for Pacific Food Distributors.

* Wymore Transfer, a warehouse and transload facility.

* Thermo Fluids.  Tank facility of some sort.

* Wilbur Ellis, some sort of feed manufacturer.

Wymore seems to be the biggest customer on the line.  This is another promising layout setting.  UPY geeps, and a graffiti bombed espee caboose to use as a shoving platform.
