  Date: 04/25/18 09:13 Re: One Mississippi, Two Mississippi, Three Mississ......... Author: wjpyper I appreciate the pix of boxcars and other rolling stock that you post. For some reason, a majority of the people who post here seem to be only interested in locomotives.

Too often we will see a posting about a high-wide load ... and only see a sliver of the high-wide because the photographer only posted a 3/4 angle shot of the locomotives. Or they will mention that the train had an interesting car .... but only took photos of the locomotives. A railway (or railroad) is so much more than just a bunch of locomotives! Will MacKenzie Dundas, ON Date: 04/25/18 10:22 Re: One Mississippi, Two Mississippi, Three Mississ......... Author: HH I also enjoy your freight car posts.
And the info you supply with them. HH Date: 04/25/18 11:12 Re: One Mississippi, Two Mississippi, Three Mississ......... Author: DLM Looks like the trailer is owned by KLLM Trucking based out of Mississippi. They have several painted up for Visit Mississippi.
Thanks for posting. Date: 04/25/18 14:09 Re: One Mississippi, Two Mississippi, Three Mississ......... Author: Fiftyfooter I agree with you Bill!

Thanks guys I appreciate the kind words! I will keep trying to mix in some different stuff to keep it interesting! Date: 04/25/18 16:35 Re: One Mississippi, Two Mississippi, Three Mississ......... Author: DynamicBrake That is one nice looking trailer! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks so much for those excellent photos of that beautifully painted truck trailer. KLLM is to be highly praised for doing that. Now THAT is true creativity! We need a lot more of that. And thanks so much for taking pictures of the cars. Without cars, railroads would not exist, yet most photographers ignore them. if locomotives are running without cars, that is a light engine move, and is interesting, but not as much as seeing a train with lots of cars behind the power. Thank you for realizing that, and for sharing your nice photos with us. Very well done! Date: 04/26/18 11:01 Re: One Mississippi, Two Mississippi, Three Mississ......... Author: skinem That's nice. Hopefully it stays that way. Reminds me of the BN trailers painted to celebrate different cities...been a while. I think it was the BN.
