ICG SW14 1461 |
| Description: |
Illinois Central Gulf SW14 1461 was heading upriver along the Mississippi near the Prytania Street grade crossing with a train of Polish coke. The coke had been unloaded at the Public Bulk Terminal which was served by the New Orleans Public Belt, and the NOPB delivered the train to the ICG at Cotton Warehouse Yard. The manicured green area along the tracks is actually a 20-foot high levee, and the stuff in the foreground belonged to one of the Bisso compainies. |
