There is a building material place on CSX south of Monroe on Saginaw Sub that gets bulk commodites (crushed limestone, sand, etc.) then bags it. I forget the name, though. JM something or other. Is that it?
Actually it is a little north of that in Rockwood. US Silica

That looks like an Essexville Terminal switcher, maybe. Is it Windsor?

EDIT: the first 2 have Canadian style crossbucks...

Both of these are on the Essex Terminal Railway on the south end of Windsor city limits. About a half kilometer apart on Maplewood Dr back in off Ojibway Parkway.
I feel like the other picture should also be on the ETR but I am going to have to think about that one.

Trenton?

I would throw SWAG in front of it, but Brent's definition of SWAG last week ruined that acronym for me.
