Today was my first ever catch of this shortline railroad, the Kentucky-West Tennessee (KWT) Railway. Here we find Z978 as it pulls through a tunnel of trees and undulating tracks as it departs Dresden, Tennessee on May 10th, 2021 on the KWT’s run between Dresden and McKenzie, Tennessee.
The KWT is owned by the Genesee & Wyoming Railroad who owns or leases 116 railroads across North America, the United Kingdom and Europe. The KWT Owns or leases 72 miles of track between Kentucky and Tennessee and interchanges with the CSX at Bruceton, TN. It was bought by the Genesee & Wyoming Railroad in 2005.
