Amtrak Inspection Train
Title:  Amtrak Inspection Train
Description:  An Amtrak inspection train was rolling off of the Missouri Pacific's former T&P Avoyelles Subdivision branch and onto the main line between Shreveport and New Orleans at Addis, Louisiana. The train was on its way from Marshall, Texas - and a connection with the route of the TEXAS EAGLE - to New Orleans. It consisted of F40PH 279, Amfleet coach 21068 and office car 10000; and as with most of these inspection trips, nothing ever came of it.
