RR Depot @ Vicksburg

The Yazoo & Mississippi Valley RR Station going under water.  I found out that water was trickling through a manhole near the newly raised floodgates.  As you can see the Yazoo Diverson Canal is creeping up at it's back door.

  2. Thanks Editor - A lot of history in the making here in Vicksburg! We are only 8 blocks from the River but high on a bluff and down in a valley so we should stay pretty dry! Thanks for dropping by! :)

  3. A sad thing to see, ravages of the river. Hoping things can get cleaned up and restoration back on track when the water passes.

    I hope all your utility services stay available for you.

  4. We should be alright utility wise but north and south of town will have problems...of course, there is always unforeseen problems. We just want to get through this and back to our lives.
