There were, however, several creameries, bluestone quarries, sawmills, coal dealers, and feed stores that shipped via the D&N. Some had their own freight sidings while most utilized team tracks. Farmers, as well as others, shipped freight via the freight agents at the depots as needed. Presented here is a listing of some of the industries along the line of the D&N.
