In this morning's Klamath Falls newspaper there is an article stating that both the UP and Lake County have terminated their contracts with Modoc Northern. I was not able to access this on the newspaper's web site. This is a sad tale for this shortline. I wil miss all the friendly employees I had the pleasure to meet and talk with over the last few years. I wish them all the luck. Hopefully UP will either operate the line from K Falls to Alturas or find a new operator. Lake County will need to do the same or this maybe the last of the Modoc Line. Only time will tell.
