History

The line was initially built in 1900 by the Choctaw, Oklahoma and Gulf Railroad, and became part of the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad main line between Memphis, Tennessee, and Tucumcari, New Mexico, in 1904. When the Rock Island abandoned operations, Green Bay Packaging (whose Arkansas Kraft paper mill north of Perry was and is a major shipper on the line) obtained the Perry to Pulaski line and started LRWN shortline service in 1980. In 1983, Green Bay Packaging partnered with Rail Management Corporation and later sold the LRWN to RMC. In 1986, LRWN was authorized to operate the Danville to Perry segment, owned by Continental Grain Company. Genesee & Wyoming Inc. purchased RMC in June 2005.
