What is the ratio of paper mill traffic, whether it is bound for a mill, for e.g. pulp, or originated at a mill, e.g. finished paper is transported via rail verses truck in Wisconsin? Which of the big railroads, UP, CP, BNSF or CN have the most paper mill traffic on them? Where does the clay slurry come from? Is there an even balance of traffic that moves via box car verses container on these lines or is it more one-sided? Do each of the big systems have intermodal facilities in close proximity of the paper mills or are containers run to and from the mills from Milwaukee or St. Paul for example?
