Company History: The C&C was built in 1907 by the Caddo River Lumber Company to move logs from Cooper (near Daisy) to the company’s mill at Rosboro, Arkansas. Several logging branches were built from the C&C mainline but these were not considered part of the C&C. Traffic other than logs was rare and LCL business was hauled for free (as were passengers although at their own risk.) The lumber company turned over ownership of the C&C to the Memphis Dallas & Gulf Railroad in 1911. Two years later, MD&G had failed to live up to the sale agreement and the C&C was returned to the lumber company. The railroad closed in 1924.
