Anyone know where I can find pictures of the Gulf and Interstate Railroad? especially the ferry loading.

Where is this railroad? Never heard of it. The closest name I can think of is Gulf and Ship Island, which ran from Gulfport, Mississippi to Jackson, Mississippi completed about 1900 and taken over by the Illinois Central in the mid 1920's. They were instrumental in developing the port (and town) at Gulfport, but they never had any ferry connections that I know of.

This railroad died decades ago. Here is the story. I would love to see pictures. I can't believe no picture exist, geeeez.
