Yazoo Delta Railroad

The Yazoo-Delta Railroad (sometimes known as the ''Yellow Dog'') was a branch line that opened in August 1897 between Moorhead and Ruleville, Mississippi. It was extended to Tutwiler, Mississippi, and Lake Dawson and was acquired by the Yazoo and Mississippi Railroad by 1903.〔
==Possible origins of the nickname==
One theory is that the nickname came about because of the initials YD on locomotives.〔(Mule trader: Ray Lum's tales of horses, mules, and men ), William R. Ferris, retrieved March 26, 2010.〕
An alternative is that the nickname applied originally to the Yazoo and Mississippi railroad and that was later applied to the Yazoo-Delta railroad.〔(Where the Southern cross the Yellow Dog: on writers and writing ), Louis Decimus Rubin, retrieved March 26, 2010.〕
Historian Paul Oliver claims that in Rome, Mississippi, "they declared that it was named after a mongrel hound that noisily greeted every train as it passed through".
