Tractor wheelbase for chip/log trailer hauling

IP has closed down a number of Facilities in both OR and WA as well.
Another big paper mill "Longview Fiber" just upstream a couple miles from Weyco was just sold but is still operating under new ownership, it's now Kapstone Kraft.
Definitely some things shaking up in the paper industry.

 

Interesting, I forgot to mention just before LVF sold out to Kapstone they sold a bunch of their timber holdings to Weyco.
The local papers got the deal all wrong and the front page said Weyco had bought LVF, turned out just timber to Weyco and the mill to Kapstone.
Makes me wonder what's next, we also deliver to four different Georgia Pacific mills in the area all of which are huge operations.

 

And India.

 

Don't like hearing that, just what this country needs is more good blue collar jobs going overseas.

 

Give "the fed" some more time to inflate the dollar until we're a third world backwater then maybe those jobs will come back cause we're the cheap labor? Who knows, nothing makes sense in this country anymore.

 

That is funny but in a way it is probably gonna be true before you know.

 

Well then, maybe Americans will start sneaking across the border into Mexico for better paying jobs as undocumented workers.
