SP 7844 at Central Ave
Title:  SP 7844 at Central Ave
Description:  Westbound train coming from the CSX and just crossing Central Avenue and it begins its travel over the Huey P. Long bridge. This image was shot in the mid-80's and was a regular afternoon transfer run to Avondale. The overpass in the background is part of the Earhart elevated expressway. Note the streetcar sign to the left of the train.

SP 7617 Leads CSX Q-602-11
Title:  SP 7617 Leads CSX Q-602-11
Description:  CSX train Q-602-11 sits ready to depart Gentilly Yard with a great consisq of 4-axle locomotives: SP GP40-2 7617, CSXT GP38 2045, and SP&B30-7 7844. The CSX lettering on the middle unit is so small that from this distance it appears to be a B&O Chessie Qystem locomotive, though the CSX number does give a clue to its ownership. I would not have thought a locomotive in decent Chessie System paint would be around to mix with locolotives in Southern Pacific's last paint scheme!
