MP 2017 |
| Description: |
Missouri Pacific GP38-2's 2017 and 2050 are westbound along the Mississippi River on the New Orleans Public Belt at Jackson Avenue. The transfer run is on its way from Race Street Yard, located just below the bridge in the background; to Avondale Yard, at the west end of the Huey P. Long Bridge. The locomotives had arrived at Race Street Yard earlier in the day on Ft. Worth-New Orleans train FN.The track layout here is typical for this area of the riverfront. From left to right are the abandoned Illinois Central Gulf northbound main line, the still-active ICG southbound main, the west- and eastbound NOPB main tracks, the NOPB switching lead, and two NOPB wharf tracks. The siding leading off to the left across Tchoupitoulas Street ran down Josephine Street. Today, the IC tracks have been displaced by a concrete floodwall, and there is only one NOPB track. All of the others have been replaced by the Clarence Henry Truckway. |
