I can tell you this much ... before the disagreement between CORP and Timber Products regarding freight fees, we were pulling 8 to 12 cars of chips, laminate and peeler cores five days a week. Mondays would usually have more ... sometimes making it necessary to make two trips to Montague (too much weight for old #21 to make it up 'pump-house hill'). This was after Tunnel 13 was reopened. The YW was working in the black then.
If Court Hammond and Doug Morgan can be extricated from the YW, I feel Timber Products, in addition to the new Fruit Growers Box mill will use rail service again. Same thing goes for Roseberg Forest Products.
