TELL CITY – The Perry County Port Authority fared “pretty strong financially in August,” despite no barges coming in that month, Kevin Teague reported at the authority’s October board of directors meeting. And while operating revenues were low, overall, rail traffic was strong due to 75 cars moving for the Waupaca foundry, the port and governmental-affairs manager for the port-rail agency said.
“Waupaca carried us on their back,” he said.
