Mays Yard |
| Description: |
Freshly-shopped Nacionales de Mexico SD40M-2 13073 really stood out among the Illinois Central Gulf engines around it at Mays Yard near New Orleans. Compared to the spotless and glowing 13073, ICG GP8 7719, SD20 2022 and GP8 7911 look rather subdued. Of course, the 13073 will never look this sharp again! The engine had just been rebuilt from Norfolk & Western SD45 1796 by VMV Enterprises at Paducah, Kentucky and was awaiting delivery to the Southern Pacific for the continuation of its trip to Mexico. |

The Florida West Coast Railroad's entire roster was photographed outside the Georgia Pacific mill in Cross City, Florida. GP18's 1353 and 1337 were both built for the Rock Island and retain their original numbers. The FWCR operates a short section of former CSX track which had been completed by the Atlantic Coast Line in 1928 as the Perry Cutoff. The line provided a shorter route for traffic moving between the Midwest and the west cost of Florida, but much of it is gone. |

L&DRR Bayou Sale Job |
| Description: |
The Louisiana & Delta’s BAYOU SALE JOB was heading east along the main line of the BNSF at the NEW IBERIA station sign, across from WEST END PARK. The lead CF7 was still painted as Allegheny & Eastern 303. The unit was previously Allegheny Railroad 103; but when Genesee & Wyoming Inc. purchased the railroad on 1 October 1992, it renamed it the A&E and renumbered the locomotive 303, which explains that white 3. GWI sent the locomotive to the L&D in July 1993 and it was eventually relettered LDRR 1505. The other locomotive was the 1500. |
