Here is a good shot of the chip car unloader that services the Old Town paper mill. It is located in Lagrange. The machine pulls itself down a string of cars and scoups the chips into waiting chip trucks. This machine used to be next to the MEC main line in Old town, a good operator can empty a car in 10 minutes.
