The first car delivered by rail rolls down the ramp from the train this afternoon near the Davisville Pier, North Kingstown. Until today, only ships were used to deliver cars to importer North Atlantic Distribution at Quonset Business Park. Ongoing track improvements are expected to benefit businesses at the park. The Volkswagen was driven down the ramp by Michael Miranda, president of North Atlantic Distribution.
