Abstract
There is remarkable decrease in the amount of the pulp-timber carried by railway into a certain wood-pulp factory which is located in the southern inland part of Fukushima Prefecture from 1961 to 1970. Two wood-pulp factories newly established between this time interval in eastern part of Aomori Prefecture and inland area of Iwate Prefecture partition the former supply area of whole Tohoku district into three smaller supply areas. Then importance of railway transportation has been diminished comparing that of the other transport facilities.
