SBD Y104 (7)
Title:  SBD Y104 (7)
Description:  Southern Pacific Job 107 was meeting Seaboard System job Y104 on the Norfolk Southern's OUTER BELT in the New Orleans suburb of Metairie. Job 107 was eastbound on the Passing Track with Southern GP50 7077, B30-7A 3520 and GP50 7076. This was the run-through train from Houston to Atlanta, and it will become train 194 when it is delivered to the Norfolk Southern. The track on the right was the now-removed L&A Long Siding, where the Southern once delivered cars to the Kansas City Southern, and just ahead was the Atherton Drive grade crossing. The photo was taken from the cab of Southern Pacific SD45R 7409, and Job Y109 was on its way from the SBD's GENTILLY YARD to the SP at the east end of the Huey P. Long Bridge.
