The Rogue Valley Terminal Railroad {{reporting mark|RVT}} is a {{convert|14|mi|adj=on}} shortline railroad that connects the industrial park in White City, Oregon, United States to the Central Oregon and Pacific Railroad, which hauls its cars to the Union Pacific Railroad at Eugene, Oregon or Black Butte, California via the Siskiyou Summit, or to the Yreka Western Railroad at Montague, California.

The line began operations on November 3, 1954 on an abandoned Southern Pacific Transportation Company right-of-way{{Citation needed|date=March 2009}} as the White City Terminal & Utilities Co., and was renamed after the Union Tank Car Company bought it in 1974.[1] Berkshire Hathaway gained indirect control of the railroad with the 2008 purchase of Marmon Transportation Services LLC (the parent company of Union Tank Car Company).

On December 17, 2012, Marmon Transportation Services announced the sale of WCTU Railway LLC to RVTR Rail Holdings, a holding company owned by Scott DeVries of Superior, Wisconsin.[2][3]

On March 15, 2013 the railroad was renamed Rogue Valley Terminal Railroad Corporation and the holding company owner was renamed the CCT Rail System Corporation[4]. RVT owns one diesel-electric switcher locomotive, an EMD Model SW1200 (RVT #82, formerly WRIX 82, originally RF&P 82), which is the primary unit used for daily freight switching operations. RVT also leases one diesel-electric switcher locomotive from Western Rail, Inc. of Airway Heights, Washington, an EMD Model SW1 (WRIX #1001), which serves as a backup unit for RVT 82.
