Southern NW2 1058 |
Description: |
Southern Railway NW2 1058 was powering a short westbound transfer run along former New Orleans Terminal Co. trackage at L&N Junction. The little train is on the Freight Lead and is crossing a Louisville & Nashville industrial spur. Up until 1954, this L&N track and another one next to it were the main line into downtown New Orleans. The track became a spur serving an industry on Elysian Fields Avenue at Florida Boulevard in 1954, and it was removed shortly after this photo was taken.The two tracks on the left of the train are the NOTCO main line. The bridge over the train is Interstate Highway 10, while the bridge in the background is Franklin Avenue. The 1058 was built in September 1948 as the 2267 and it spent most of its life at New Orleans. It was renumbered 1058 in December 1972, and was withdrawn from service at New Orleans in June 1980. |
