Southern 4501 in Hattiesburg,Ms
Author: gcm

Nov 1975
Facing south, 4501 is getting ready to head back to New Orleans on an excursion.
The Southern station is off to the right and the engine is on the crossing of the ICG (ex-Illinois Central, ex-Mississippi Central ?).

The line you were standing is the ICG's former Gulf and Ship Island mainline. The Mississippi Central crossed the Southern north of the Southern's depot and yard, although that crossing might have been gone by the time your photo was taken.
