DOMTAR 1001 |
| Description: |
Domtar 1001 'Nekoosa' rests in front of the Domtar, Inc., Nekoosa Mill (historically Nekoosa-Edwards Paper Co.) on Market St. (mailing address is around the corner on Point Basse Ave.) on former MILW rails at Nekoosa, WI on 4 Jul. '17. It was founded as Nekoosa Paper Co. in 1893 at Nekoosa, WI (originally known as Pointe Basse). Their first paper machine had been built by the Beloit Iron Works and displayed at the Chicago World’s Fair in '92, “where it was shown to the world as a model paper machine.” Nekoosa Paper Co. merged with the John Edwards Manufacturing Co. (including the John Edwards Paper Mill and possibly the Port Edwards Fibre Co.) and Nash Lumber Co. to form the Nekoosa-Edwards Paper Co. (NEPCO) in '08. Some references list the Centralia Pulp & Water Power Co. as part of that merger; other references state it was purchased several years later. Most of those entities had been founded by the same group of industrialists. Both paper mills were served by the MILW, SOO, and C&NW, but ca. '10 NEPCO laid a fourth set of rails so that they could easily move materials between Port Edwards and Nekoosa with their own locomotives as well. NEPCO merged with the Great Northern Paper Co. in '70 to become Great Northern Nekoosa Corp. They were acquired by Georgia-Pacific in '90. The facility has been operated by Domtar, Inc., since 2001. The locomotive was built in Oct. '49 as ALM 10, later renumbered ALM 1001. Sold to Georgia-Pacific to become G-P 1001 and later sold to Domtar, Inc. |
