SSW 70373, UP 93607, and SSW 78832 at Planters Rice Mill
Title:  SSW 70373, UP 93607, and SSW 78832 at Planters Rice Mill
Description:  SSW 70373, UP 93607, and SSW 78832 are at Planters Rice Mill in Abbeville, having been brought there on the 18th. The SSW 70373 is still wearing its big "COTTON BELT" lettering, probably from the factory when it was crated in October 1979, and, as badly tagged as it is, it probably wont be wearing that paint for long. It is one of the last such cars still with the big "COTTON BELT" lettering.
