A pair of Amtrak P30CH units, led by the 702, were on the westbound SUNSET as the train made its way from New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal to the Huey P. Long Bridge. The train was on NOUPT’s WESTERN CONNECTION at the Cold Storage Road grade crossing, approaching the Illinois Central Gulf connection at SOUTHPORT JUNCTION. The train operated over NOUPT, ICG and New Orleans Public Belt tracks to get to the Southern Pacific at the west end of the Bridge. |

Auto Train |
Description: |
One of the more interesting Amtrak operations was the Auto Train. They took over the failed train after Auto Train Corp went under. It was a chance to see Amtraks name on the side of freight equipment-they had a fleet of auto racks-and also some of Amtraks most unusual power, their fleet of GE P30CHs, known affectionately as "pooches." Heres a pair southbound out of Lorton. |

Amtrak No. 24 |
Description: |
It's 6:42 on a Thursday evening and the eastbound GULF COAST LIMITED is being passed up by the rush-hour traffic on Interstate 10. Today's train is much longer than the typical 3- or 4-car consist, because of a secial group that came in today or which has made reservations for tomorrow. Train No. 24 is on the NOUPT Eastern Connection, descending from the Metairie Road overpass, and is just bdginning its trip to Mobile. Notice the blue 1984 Louisiana World Exposition signs on the right. The train was introduced shortly before the Fair opened and was discontinued shortly after the Fair closed. |
