Do you mean the tracks on N. Branch?  They should have been for Akzo Salt.

Various offline customers once used the Division Street team tracks at Hickory including a dog food company.  I\'m not sure what was being loaded or unloaded that day at the team tracks-perhaps plastic pellets from the look of things.

the most common freight cars at the team tracks were boxcars from my recollection, for various building supply companies.

I also recall seeing the team track used to load and unload corn!! into trucks where the Waste Manangement facility is now.
