    Wow, I remember this industry. In fact I walked through the abandoned building in 2006 about. Very cool shot.

    Cottrell was a freight forwarder, grouping LCL (less than carload) shipments to major cities. If I recall correctly, Clarke also did this and the boxcars were handled on intermodal trains.
