  • The Delta Valley and Southern Railway (reporting mark DVS) is a short-line railroad headquartered in Wilson, Arkansas. DVS operates a two-mile line in Arkansas near Wilson with one switch engine. The line is the former 18.1-mile (29.1 km) St. Louis-San Francisco Railway branch from Elkins to . All but 2 miles (3.2 km) from Delpro to Elkins was abandoned in 1947. As of 1996, the railroad operated from its enginehouse at the present end of the line to a connection with the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) south of Wilson. The line served one cotton processing plant owned by the R.E.L. Wilson company. Motive power was a GE 45-tonner side-rod locomotive, purchased new in May 1954, GE s/n 32129. The locomotive, DV&S 50, is on the National Register of Historic Places. The locomotive was housed in a single stall engine house built right over the main line of this short railroad, at the end of the line. However, that locomotive was sold in 2009. Corporate headquarters are located in the company town of Wilson, Arkansas. The corporate office is on the south side of the central business district in Wilson. (en)
