Tom writes... I'm involved with the
historic Wilmington and Western RR here in Delaware. One of our locomotives,
former Mississippi Central RR No. 98, was used at Camp Shelby during WWII to
train soldiers for various railway units. I've attached a photo of No. 98 and a
document I created that details the railway training at Camp Shelby during WWII
Thanks

If you have any materials connected to these great Army Railway units please share them here with the families of the soldiers. If you are a collector or memorabilia dealer PLEASE share copies or scans of items BEFORE you sell these priceless materials to private collectors . I will hold the copies until after they sell. It means so much to the families of the guy's that actually served in these units.
