FullStack Modular manufactures and constructs mid-sized and modular high-rise buildings and it's moved to Hamden, Connecticut. Its facility is next to Amtrak's Hartford-Springfield line, and one reason for the move is proximity to rail and the port of New Haven.

From the latter source: the CEO states "We have a rail spur outside our door that goes directly to Gateway Terminal," he said. Once the units arrive at Gateway Terminal, officials there will determine the most effective way to get the components to where they need to go, either by large ships, trucks or via rail."
While there's a siding next to the property on Edmunds St., it splits from track 1 of the New Haven-Springfield Line near the coaling tower at Cedar Hill. I can't see any way to get from there to the Belle Dock Running Track to the port. Not enough crossovers at present. Maybe wishful thinking on someone's part? And what freight railroad would service this customer?
