William H. Davis Jr.	General	Great shot. Cool to see a photo from where I once worked as Conductor with CSXT from 1997 to late 1998. I now work as an Engineer with CSXT out of Birmingham to Nashville or Montgomery. This shot brought back some fun memories of when I worked down there. Thanks	4/6/2009 9:07:45 AM

SCL 1740, SBD 2719, and SBD 6028
Seaboard System New Orleans-Birmingham train No. 470 crosses the Rigolets Drawbridge, 26 miles east of Gentilly Yard in New Orleans. The Rigolets is a pass which connects Lake Pontchartrain -- off to the right -- with the Gulf of Mexico on the left, and the New Orleans city limit is on the far shore. The slide was taken through the windshield of a helicopter, which explains the poor quality of the image.
