Railway Operating Battalions trained at Camp Shelby WWII

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


Here is Tom's chart of when units trained at Camp Shelby :

    Thanks for sharing these items. I'm always on the lookout for anything that related to our locomotive being used at Camp Shelby.
