Paper Mill Illuminati

The Golden Triangle heads east light power after setting out cars at the Fiber Plant west of Columbus, Mississippi. #819 and #810 were two of four EMD GP38-2s ordered brand-new by Weyerhaeuser in 1980 for a logging operation in Washington state known as the Chehalis Western (CWWR). When the CWWR ceased operations in 1992, these two engines went to the Golden Triangle where they have remained in operation since Weyerhaeuser sold its railroad subsidiaries to Patriot Rail. The latter two CWWR GP38-2s, #817 and #818, went to the De Queen and Eastern in Arkansas, another former Weyerhaeuser operation.
