Former Surry, Sussex & Southampton Railway 2-6-0 No. 6 pulls a short passenger train on the Midwest Central Railroad’s three-foot gauge line at Midwest Old Threshers museum complex in Mount Pleasant, Iowa during the 2012 NRHS Convention. The narrow gauge Mogul was built by Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1891 and hauled logs from the forests in southeast Virginia to a large lumber processing facility in Surry County. By the early 1920s the forests were mostly depleted, and both the railroad and lumber facility saw a significant decrease in business. By the mid-1920s the railroad was abandoned and the tracks were pulled up, and little, remains of the railroad.
