Eureka Southern Railroad : ウィキペディア英語版 | Eureka Southern Railroad
The Eureka Southern Railroad was a shortline formed from the northern end of the Northwestern Pacific from Willits, California to Eureka, California. ==Origin== On September 8, 1981, Bryan Whipple purchased the soon-to-be abandoned northern end of the Northwestern Pacific mainline from Willits, California to Eureka, California. His Eureka Southern Railroad purchased the segment of the line for $4.95 million, and on November 1, 1984 the railroad commenced operations with four EMD GP38 2,000-horsepower (1,500 kW) locomotives it acquired from Conrail, built in 1969. The line struggled to make money, and on December 15, 1986, the road filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy, but continued operations. Also environmental restrictions and historic overharvest on private timber lands limited timber availability in the region, though wood products had historically been the top source of revenue.
