One of my favorite shortlines in the south is Mississippian 102 with a solo GP7R in an old steam locomotive shed. This railroad is very much active at 3 days a week and hauling roughly 120 cars per month. |

Todays return train was one loaded car of product bound for interchange with BNSF in Amory. This Mississippian is that little shortline that does all they can to make a buck and it has paid off over the years, despite some times having low numbers of volume. |
