Moscow, Camden & San Augustine Railroad

Moscow, Camden & San Augustine operates a 7 mile line headquartered in the small town of Camden in east Texas. The line extends west from Camden to a connection with the UP Lufkin Subdivision at Moscow. The line's traffic is primarily related to the east Texas timber industry, and consists of lumber and lumber-related projects.

The MC&SA is owned by International Paper Co. International Paper acquired the line's previous owner -- Champion International -- in 2000. The line's major source of traffic is the IP lumber mill in Camden.
