Aside from legacy freight cars, the railroad actually has a new freight customer, complete with a newly built siding. View the aerial map with siding (shown with some tank cars present) here: [www.google.com]
That siding location is east of the Palestine passenger depot, so regular passenger trains do not travel on that section of rails.
More info on the freight customer:

The freight business on the TSR tracks is run by the same Western Group that now runs the passenger trains on TSR, but freight operations are doing business under the name of Texas & Eastern Railroad.
It should be noted that this freight deal was in the works before The Western Group took over the TSR management, so IPH deserves credit for getting this going.
