Plymouth Absopure Building/Warehouse Question

Back in the day the old Toys R Us warehouse in Plymouth off Haggerty Rd was used to store I think Aluminum or steel ingots/coil and did receive rail service. Drove by the building a few days ago and saw the Absopure sign out front I noticed the switch was still intact so is this still getting serviced? Also is Plastipak still getting rail service?

Was the last activity at that warehouse the Aluminum Ingot storage at least thats what I heard it was used for at one point? Do you know if Plastipak is still getting rail service?

The short lived aluminum ingot business is the last rail business I know of.

I haven't been by Plastipak in several years.
