West 27th Street |
Description: |
IC GP10 8033 leads the twice-weekly Shore Line District local along West 27th Street in Covington, near the end of its 65-mile trip from Bogalusa. It was also near the end of the line for this branch. The track was abandoned in 1991 and this area doesn't look anything like this anymore! Today's train had six cars: bulkhead flats TOE 4085 and 4037 with building material for Poole Lumber Co., insulated box car (RBL) MRS 2091 with beer for Champagne Beverage Co., and empty pulpwood cars IC 1472, GM&O 4028 and GM&O 3615. The caboose was ICG 199320, the regular car on this run, built in January 1976. |

IC 8116 Switching |
Description: |
The northward ICG Shore Line District local has stopped just west of Camp Villere Road, on the west side of Slidell, to set out box car BCOL 40926 at Swain Building Materials. The two covered hoppers -- SOU 96945 and 96280 -- will be dropped off at USS Agri-Chem, about a mile west of Abita Springs. The four empty pulpwood cars will go all the way to the end of the branch at Covington, and then be set out at Triangle Timber -- between Covington and Abita Springs -- on the return trip tomorrow. The local's caboose had been eliminated in September or October of the previous year. Today this track is on the remnant of the Shore Line District that is owned by Norfolk Southern, and the track ends just beyond this switch. |

Little Bayou Castine |
Description: |
The southward Shore Line Branch local heads into the morning sun at Little Bayou Castine in Mandeville. The train only had four cars -- empty Southern Railway insulated box cars 585230 and 585063 and loaded GM&O pulpwood cars 3536 and 4493 -- as the use of a caboose had been discontunued about a year earlier, in August or September of 1984. Bridge NA53.09 was a 256-foot ballasted deck trestle built in 1916.After five and a half years of documenting the Shore Line District, this was to be the last photo I ever took of a train on the branch. In fact, it was the last time I ever saw a train on the branch. We had sold our home in Mandeville, and the next day we moved back to New Orleans. The last train operated over the line on 16 January 1991, and most of the line was officially abandoned in June 1992; but the right-of-way survives as the TAMMANY TRACE rail-trail. |

ICG Wreck 4 |
Description: |
On 1 April 1975 the Illinois Central Gulf local heading south on the former Gulf Mobile & Ohio main line between Bogalusa and Slidell, Louisiana was diverted into the spur at Florenville and collided with some stored cars. Lead unit 8158 had been rebuilt from GP9 9158 in May 1968. After the wreck it returned to the railroad's shop at Paducah, Kentucky for some major work and re-entered service in April 1977 as ICG 8126. As bad as the damage was, there were no fatalities. Engineer Luther Walley survived on the walkway behind the cab, while another trainman was in the trailing unit. |

The loaded pulpwood cars on the front of the train had been picked up at a woodyard about half way between Covington and Abita Springs, and were on their way to the Crown Zellerbach paper mill in Bogalusa.

At one time, this end of the wye continued east about five miles to Handsboro, on Bernard Bayou. Handsboro was the site of the Henry Lienhard sawmill and was also a shipping location for finished export lumber and large timbers being sent out in ships by way of Ship Island, before the port of Gulfport was finished; but that line was abandoned around 1906. |

Two Trains |
Description: |
About a mile west of Abita Springs, at Schoen Road, the ICG Shore Line District served two customers. USS Agri-Chem, on the right, received limestone and agricultural chemicals in box cars and covered hoppers, and was served by northward trains. Triangle Timber, behind me and on the opposite side of the main line, shipped pulpwood and was worked in the other direction.Finding more than one train on the branch was really unusual, and was usually the result of a work train on the line. This view facing east from Schoen Road was taken on a Thursday afternoon, a normal day for the northward local, whose locomotive is in the siding. The 8308, along with GP30 2269, had arrived here the previous afternoon with 23 empty hopper cars and caboose 199318. The train had been dumping ballast along the line and the crew parked their train here, where they were picked up by a company car and returned home to Bogalusa.Earlier this afternoon the regular northward local -- with GP10 8183 -- pulled up behind the ballast train and coupled to its caboose. The company station wagon, which had come down from Bogalusa to bring the crew back home, brought the crew here to get on the 8308. They pulled the combined train forward, set out the local's engine on the siding, then shoved the combined train back on the main line until everything looked like this. The crew finished whatever they were doing when they returned from Bogalusa on Friday morning to complete their northward trip and then take the train back home. Eleven years later, the branch was abandoned. |
