Mississippi Delta Railroad

Primary commodities include PVC, polystyrene, plastics, paper, corn, cottonseed products, propane, and rubber, which generates approximately 5,500 annual carloads.

This included operation of the Delta Oil Mill private railroad from Lula to Jonestown, as well as the route from Lyon and Swan Lake leased from the Illinois Central.

[2][3] The railroad hauled soybeans, cotton seed byproducts, lint, carbon black, and rubber, with traffic amounting to nearly 4,000 annual carloads in 1995.

Instead, G&O and Coahoma County reached an agreement whereby the latter would purchase the railroad - including the leased portion from Illinois Central - and the former would continue to serve the line until a new long term operator could be found.

Currently the railroad still operates from a connection with the Canadian National at Swan Lake, with PVC, polystyrene, plastics, paper, corn, cottonseed products, propane, and rubber constituting the majority of the 5,500 annual carloads over the line.
