Columbus and Greenville Railway is a shortline that runs east to west across the entirety of Mississippi. This is their HQ (or at least their Columbus HQ). Pictured are the CAGY's first locomotive (now retired), their shops, and to the far right, their main line. Their yard is both behind the shops and behind the photographer.

A C&GR locomotive. This used to be an E-7, but was rebuilt to it's current look, now classified as (I think) and FP-7 (or something like that...).
It was apparent after driving arround the C&G yards that they had, have, and have had, more paint schemes than I've ever seen one railroad with (-dk). I keep changing what I call the Columbus and Greenville--C&G, C&GR, CAGY--well, deal with it. Actually, CAGY are their reporting marks, so if you ever see freight cars with those marks, you know who that freigh belongs to.
I think the Golden Triangle RR is arround Columbus somewhere... but I've never found it (nor looked). If you've got info on C&G or Golden Triangle, we need it, so please send it.

Another locomotive. There were four, roughly the same type (but each slightly different) and painted in this yellow and green scheme all strung together. If I scan those photos, you know where to look to see em...

A C&G maintainance car of some type. Perhaps a weed sprayer? Interesting none-the-less.

Yes, C&G even has a good deal (hell, a lot) of passanger equipment. Some of it in excellent condition, some very poor. Why do they have all this stuff? Please, somebody write pages to us on this railroad. You may even inspire another journey to get more photos... (and maybe that trip will even be on a saturday or weekday, with some chance of us meeting someone who works there who can tell us stuff first hand!).

That's all the C&G stuff for now...
