rail spur connection
A loading interface where trains leave the main track and stop in or beside a property on a rail spur.
A rail spur connection is a loading dock, platform, or other interface between an object and a railroad network, where trains can leave the main track and park themselves in or beside the object for loading and unloading. This is a common feature for industrial facilities and warehouses.
The spur lets rail vehicles stand at the property without occupying the main track. A platform, loading dock, or another loading interface can provide the connection.
An adjacent railway without a place for trains to leave the main line and load or unload does not establish this feature. Industrial facilities and warehouses are common users rather than the only eligible uses.
