Here's a little info on it.
Quote:
Army Corps staffers on a tour of storm damage saw three barges and a 500-foot ship jammed against the bumpers of the L & N railroad bridge - also known as the Almonaster railroad bridge -- on Monday evening.

That must be this one.
Quote:
Brewer confirmed that at least the two ships were owned by Southern Scrap, a company that buys old vessels to take apart for scrap. Repeated phone calls were made to local Southern Scrap offices, but nobody answered.

Must be an old ship. Maybe it is ww2-era.
Seeing it grounded like that makes me sad. I'd much rather see it broken in half, sliding into the abyss
