Central California Traction Co

Truck TransportationCalifornia, United States2-10 Employees

Central California Traction Co is a regional railroad operator based in Stockton, California, focused on providing switching and track services within the Central Valley corridor. Its operations include maneuvering and interchanging traffic along two track segments—the Central Valley Branch between Stockton and Lodi, plus a short industrial lead into Lodi—facilitating movement to and from larger interchanges with major carriers. The company serves industrial customers such as Penny Newman Grain and Duraflame by handling switching tasks under a lease of a portion of the UPRR Scotts Street lead, and connects with major railroads at Stockton through interchanges with UPRR, BNSF, and STE, enabling traffic to and from Lodi. Positioned within the trucking and rail transportation ecosystem of the broader Port of Stockton area, the firm supports freight logistics in a region noted for its inland port facilities and on-dock rail operations. The organization operates a modest roster of locomotives and relies on established interchanges to move freight efficiently, reflecting its niche role in regional rail switching and terminal operations. A notable recent development is a historical mention of leadership transitions affecting management, with a former general manager noted as having retired in the mid-2010s but remaining active in the industry. }
