      I have no idea where these flood photos were taken (I just uploaded a second shot of this engine in the floodwaters). I suspect that they were taken on the south end of the IC, deep in the heart of Dixie: the IC experienced regular flooding down there, and was a mover & shaker in getting levees arounf NO improved and swamps throughout the South drained and diked. I also uploaded another photo of a different flood in MS as an example of what the IC went through annually (I've got something like 20 different flood photos from the IC, all in different locations!)
    There are no comments to display.
