Remember Manifest Destiny? They didn’t need a study to build those rail lines. As a taxpayer I do not want to subsidize the rail industry. If Mississippi State University is involved they will most assuredly find the rail line is absolutely necessary. They did the same thing for a study in North Mississippi for a rail line where there is no demand for rail service. All in the name of “economic development.” Haha. What a joke. They should stick to making cheese.

They so found during a similar study a few years ago in North Mississippi. They were totally off-base with that study. T
