MSE SW900 4301 |
| Description: |
Mississippi Export SW900 4301 was parked next to the railroad’s shop building at Moss Point, Mississippi. The locomotive had been built in September 1960 as Corinth & Counce (CCR) 901, became TennRail (TNR) 901, and then went to the Kansas City Southern when that railroad acquired MidSouth Rail and its subsidiaries. It was eventually renumbered KCS 4301 and went to the Mississippi Export in February 2009, where it is available for lease to industries needing a switch engine. This was actually the second KCS loco to be numbered 4301; the first was an SW7 which had been built in October 1950 as the 1301, then renumbered 4301 in 1973 and sold for scrap in 1986. |
