Southbound ICG
Title:  Southbound ICG
Description:  In 1973, the year after the ICG merger, GM&O GP38 721 and GP38-2 744 lead a southbound train past the Bogalusa depot on its way to South Yard. After the merger, the ICG discontinued the regular operation of a through train from Bogalusa south to New Orleans; so almost all of the rail traffic moving into Bogalusa came in from the north on trains like this. (approximate date)
