You're right, the siding is pretty much gone. Only a little bit remains, last time I checked.
However, the district 2 TOM's still refer to it as the "Demoulas Siding" which I suppose is ok since they still refer to the M&L as the M&L even though it isn't even used as far as Methuen, let alone Manchester.
They talk about Lowell Hill which is in Lawrence and still refer to the "Southern" on occasion.
I also hear them mention "track cars" which is somewhat odd because the majority of them are good sized pickup trucks.
They also talk about the Lowell Branch that runs from Andover to Ayer (B&M mileposts along the line give the mileage from LJ and A. They call it a branch even though it is the main line for freight and without it, Guilford would be more than slightly inconvenienced.
BTW as long as the Form D's begin with the letter G, it's Guilford.
But, as you said, there is no longer a Demoulas siding to speak of, only the run-around that you speak of.
I will refer to it as the "Demoulas Siding" simply because I hear that term on the radio all the time.
It is used as a siding quite a bit. More often than not, when I drive by, there will be cars set out there.
Hope your work week is going well. Super day today, was nice to be outside for at least some of it.
