OK, I'm not sure if this is exactly the correct place for this thread, but a new use for portals has occurred to me. If portal which brings equipment onto the route is disguised as a building, perhaps it can be used as a railroad car manufacturer. If you have an interchange included on your route, this becomes a way to run that equipment that you really like but for which you otherwise have no reason to operate. In the same manner, a portal which takes equipment off the route, similarly disguised as a building, might be used as a railroad equipment scrap / salvage operation.
And it occurs to me in the former case, the manufacturer, would provide an industry, receiving inbound shipments by rail, while the latter case, the scrap yard, would provide outbound shipments of scrap.
