Tennessee Southern Railroad
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Tennessee Southern Railroad (AAR reporting marks TSRR) began operations in 1988 and currently operates in middle Tennessee and northwestern Alabama on about 120 miles (193 km) of track. Commodities the TSRR handles include scrap iron, coal, coke, woodpulp, pulpboard, sand, chemicals, steel, aluminum, and fertilizer raw materials. In 2007, in response to increasing traffic, the TSRR purchased eight diesel locomotives with greater power and fuel efficiency than its existing fleet of ten.[1]
