fogg1703 wrote:Yes, I think they have for some time, perhaps ever since MMA exited that segment of line and Irving took over. From what I can tell in tracing boxcars assigned to paper service on the CMQ/NBSR, loads out of Madawaska are somewhat sporadic, sometimes one or two at a time, other times a bigger slug. Not ratable or consistent by any means. The carloads in the video were loaded from roughly Feb ~14-~18 from what I can tell. I hope this helps, if anyone with boots on the ground can confirm further it'd be appreciated.jjoyce1 wrote:Wow great news there...I hadn't realized that Twin Rivers was again using rail in Madawaska.fogg1703 wrote:Are the boxes JM Huber loads?No, every single one visible in the CMQ video was loaded at Madawaska, per CSXT trace...

fogg1703 wrote:Mr Joyce any info on destinations of said Twin River loads? Curious if they were central New England bound or further west, i.e. Mid Atlantic or Mid West.About the only New England destination for that Madawaska paper I've noticed consistently has been Ware, MA on the MassCentral (consignee Kanzaki Paper). Those loads always ply the WACR via the Newport gateway. But again they're somewhat sporadic. In the case of the job in the video that started this discussion, here are the station name destinations according to CSXT:
The DOT also granted $7,382 to MPG Crop Services in Presque Isle to rehabilitate track siding along its fertilizer warehouse, allowing the company to resume taking rail deliveries, according to the department.
