Southern U23B 3917
Title:  Southern U23B 3917
Description:  Southern Railway U23B 3917 is about to enter Oliver Yard with a special train of oversize steel girders. Although it is a special train, it is flying green flags, which show that it is running as the first section of a regularly-scheduled train. In this case, it is operating as First No. 169.

The train has just passed under the Almonaster Avenue overpass, crossed the former New Orleans Terminal Co. main line, and is crossing the Florida Avenue drainage canal. The NOTCO crossings were eventually removed.
