hemiadda2d,

Missile base is a ballast pit that is located 4.3 miles west of Fishtrap siding according to the BNSF timetable. It is served by the Lind Turn which orginates in Spokane, WA and works some of the industries on the east end of the Lakeside sub. There seems to be a car or two there most days although it isn't nearly as common in the winter since there isn't nearly as much track work being down. As for the name I am not sure of the origin but that is what it is.
