| Description: |
Union Pacific GP40 units 663 and 665 were heading west up the Huey P. Long Bridge. They had just brought a special train to the 1984 World Exposition and were on their way to Avondale Yard, at the west end of the bridge. The locomotives were built as Western Pacific 3514 and 3516, and in 1994 they were rebuilt by Morrison-Knudsen into Kansas City Southern GP40-2's 4777 and 4779. |
