As the line to the east is being scrapped the half-boxes are used to collect rail. I saw some rail leave on Friday in regular mill gons, so apparently the half boxes are just used to collect the rail, not ship it.

There was a bunch of tops (box tops!) near the shop at McCloud. Looks like they'd make nice storage sheds, but unless you were way short, you'd have to duck.
