CCT Rail System Corporation is a US shortline railroad holding company that owns and operates the Rogue Valley Terminal Railroad Corporation.
The company was founded in Superior, Wisconsin. In June 2014, the company relocated its offices to White City, Oregon in order to be closer to the rail operations of Rogue Valley Terminal Railroad
History
The company was founded on November 20, 2012 as RVTR Rail Holdings LLC for the purpose of acquiring the WCTU Railway LLC (WCTR) from Marmon Transportation Services LLC, a unit of Berkshire Hathaway.[1] CCT successfully acquired WCTR on December 17, 2012.[2]
To effectively re-organize and re-brand the company as a platform for acquiring and operating other North American shortline railroads in the future, the company was renamed to CCT Rail System Corporation on March 15, 2013. The company's sole subsidiary, WCTR, was also renamed Rogue Valley Terminal Railroad Corporation (RVT) on the same date to market the broader Southern Oregon region served by the railroad.
