ICG NC-6
Title:  ICG NC-6
Description:  ICG train NC-6 heads across the 2-mile-long Bonnet Carre Spillway trestle on its way out of the New Orleans area.

Export Coal Train
Title:  Export Coal Train
Description:  An ICG unit coal train was on the Nashville Avenue underpass as it entered the New Orleans Public Belt's Cotton Warehouse Yard. The coal was on its way from Illinois to Spain, and the NOPB would move the train to the Public Bulk Terminal -- along the Mississippi River-Gulf Outlet -- for unloading. Motive power was provided by four PADUCAH REBUILDS: SD20's 2014, 2017, and 2011, along with GP8 7731.

Mays Yard
Title:  Mays Yard
Description:  Freshly-shopped Nacionales de Mexico SD40M-2 13073 really stood out among the Illinois Central Gulf engines around it at Mays Yard near New Orleans. Compared to the spotless and glowing 13073, ICG GP8 7719, SD20 2022 and GP8 7911 look rather subdued. Of course, the 13073 will never look this sharp again! The engine had just been rebuilt from Norfolk & Western SD45 1796 by VMV Enterprises at Paducah, Kentucky and was awaiting delivery to the Southern Pacific for the continuation of its trip to Mexico.
