KCS Meet |
| Description: |
KCS trains 55 - in the foreground - and 54 were parked across from one another on the Southern Railway's New Orleans Terminal Co. at the Labarre Road Grade crossing in suburban Metairie. No. 55 had GP40-2 799, F7B slug 4077 and GP40 786. It originated in Dallas and was on its way to the Southern's OLIVER YARD. No. 54 had GP40-2 797, F7B slug 4076 and GP38-2 4002. It originated at the Seaboard System's GENTILLY YARD here in New Orleans and was on its way to Dallas. A Southern crew had brought the train over the NOTCO five miles from L&N Junction, and the same crew would head back east with No. 55. A KCS station wagon has come over from their nearby WEST YARD with a road crew for No. 54, and would return to the yard with the crew off of No. 55. KCS and Southern cordiatd the departure of No. 54 from L&N Junction with the arrival of No. 55, so scenes like this occurred regularly. |

KCS GP40 786 |
| Description: |
Kansas City Southern GP40 786 was parked at WEST YARD, just outside of New Orleans. It had been built in February 1967 as Illinois Central 3050 (EMD 32870) and was acquired by the KCS in April 1982, after its initial 15-year lease expired. In July 1991 KCS sent the 786 to Morrison Knudsen’s MOUNTAINTOP LOCOMOTIVE SHOP in Pennsylvania to have its prime mover swapped with the 4748, which was then upgraded into GP40M-2 4782. The 786 remained at Mountaintop and was finally scrapped in March 1996. |
