CAGY Train at Itta Bena, Mississippi

Thursday, September 30, 2004 :

Of all the times I visited the CN/IC in Missippi, this was the only time I actually saw the CAGY in action. Normally, they would just be parked in Greenwood. But on this date at the end of a very successful day on the CN Yazoo Sub, we witnessed this little CAGY train leaving town heading westbound to what I assumed to be Greenville. We postponed our nice steak dinner at the Crystal Grille long enough to catch this guy one time bumping along just west of Itta Bena. Not even sure if this operation even runs anymore, but I do know the tracks from Greenwood to the East are no longer there.

1742 Hours

If anyone happens to know what symbol the CAGY might have used for this movement, please let me know. Thank You!
