Where the Southern Crosses the Yellow Dog

[edit]

This paragraph originally read:

Moorhead is where "The Southern crosses the Dog" a fabled location in Delta Blues music. The two railroads that crossed in Moorhead were the Southern in Mississippi(SRinM) which became the Columbus and Greenville and east-west line and the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley (Y&MV) know as the "Yellow Dog" for laying track across the SRinM without permission. The level junction or diamond is still preserved as an historic site though the north-south line is abandoned.

There seems to be no evidence that the Yazoo Delta Railroad crossed the Southern "without permission", and no reference was provided.

Please let me know if this was a fact so the integrity of this article can be maintained.
