  • Sand Move Starts and Finishes with Watco Short Lines by Tracie Vanbecelaere Managing Editor
    The newsletter for Watco Companies - August 2017, Volume 18, Issue 8 Sand move starts and finishes with Watco short lines by Tracie VanBecelaere Managing Editor There’s a lot of sand in Louisiana, but it’s not just another day at the beach. This sand, which is actually frac sand used in drilling, moves from Wis- consin down to Louisiana by rail, originating at one Watco short line, the Wisconsin & Southern Railroad (WSOR), and ending at another, the Louisi- ana Southern Railroad (LAS). Although this particular move just began roll- ing in June of 2017, there is history behind the move that made it happen. The sand is being shipped from Badger Mining’s Fairwater mine in Utley, Wisconsin. Badger Mining merged with Atlas Resin Proppants in 2015 and that’s where the Watco connection began: Atlas had been shipping product on the LAS since 2010. Badger also has two other Watco destination termi- nals, Dore, North Dakota, and the Pecos Valley Southern Railway in Pecos, Texas. The primary difference between the shipments to Louisiana and the other locations is that this one will be consistent with an expected 2,880 railcars or 288,000 tons moving the first year. Steve Banker, Badger Mining’s logistics development manager, said, More than two million tons of sand is scheduled to ship annually from Bad- “When we need to research potential destination facilities to meet our Cus- ger Mining's Fairwater mine in Utley, Wisconsin, to Louisiana.
