Apache Railway shutting down?

I just read on the interwebs that Catalyst paper, owner of the Apache Railway (ALCo/MLW holdout) is shutting down it's Arizona mill in September. Unless something major happens this likely is the end of the Apache Railway. Hopefully the ALCos can find their way to A&M/GVT/LAL.

Word is they'll keep operating to serve the pig farm and drop from 20 to 9 employees. It's something, but it still totally sucks... sooo glad I made the trip to shoot it (albeit for only a day) in 2010.
