Nice photo!
The Apache
may not be shutting down in September, though. There is a report that the Apache will continue to operate, at a reduced level.
Quote:From TO member Drew MitchemI was made aware yesterday that the Apache Railway will NOT shut down after the mill closes on September 30, 2012, but will run at a reduced capacity with less employees(9 instead of the current 25)after that date as the majority of its business will be gone. The only business that will remain is the Pig Farm, car storage, and potential transloading. The decision was made by the higher ups at Catalyst(owners of the Railroad) yesterday. This info was given to me from a friend who spoke with the Superintendent of the Apache Railway yesterday afternoon.

Of course, a report on TO can have varying levels of accuracy, just like on this forum.
