Southern Railway 1102 was a 4-6-0 steam locomotive built in 1903 by Baldwin Locomotive Works for Southern Railway. It was used on the Fast Mail trains between Washington, D.C., and New Orleans, Louisiana. The locomotive gained notoriety for being involved in the derailment of September 27, 1903, that served as the inspiration for the ballad Wreck of the Old 97. Upon being repaired, the locomotive served the Southern for thirty-two years when it was scrapped in July 1935.
