The northward Shore Line District local is crossing North New Hampshire Street in the curve just south of the former depot. The train has 17 cars: an empty SP box car, a loaded KCS box car for Marsolan Feed, three loaded beer cars, six empty pulpwood cars, two empty gondolas for the scrap yard, caboose 199034, three empty covered hoppers, and one empty box car. The four cars behind the caboose were picked up at USS Agri-Chem, about three miles east of here. |

| Description: |
The northward Shore Line District Local is about to pass the former GM&O depot, which was being remodeled as a restaurant. The track in the foreground was originally the west leg of the East Louisiana Railroad wye. By this time, it was just a siding that served Marsolan Feed & Seed, a regular customer of the railroad; and was occasionally used as a team track. |

Bogue Falaya Crossing |
| Description: |
ICG GP10 8237 crosses the Bogue Falaya with the northward Shore Line District local. The interesting bridge girder was built by the Edgemoor Iron Works of Wilmington, Delaware in 1888, when the East Louisiana Railroad constructed this line into Covington. The trestle shows evidence of the upgrading received by the entire branch in 1980; but despite this investment, the line was abandoned just ten years after this photo was taken. |
