| Title: |
Amtrak Trains 59 and 1 |
| Description: |
Four one-year-old SDP40F units were side-by-side at New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal. The 613 and 619 had just backed in with Train 59 - the southbound PANAMA LIMITED - while the 571 and 568 were waiting to leave at 1:00 with Train 1 – the westbound SUNSET. You could tell that the 571 was originally assigned to the SAN FRANCISCO ZEPHYR by the icicle breakers above its cab! The 613’s red emergency brake light was still on, and momentarily the PANAMA's power would head for the engine terminal where the crew would go off duty. (approximate date) |
