Extra East |

From left to right are the engine tie-up track, scale house, scale track and a siding. The train is passing the former depot, which became the headquarters of the Louisiana & Delta Railroad in 1987; and next to this is the unused freight house. |

SP 5105 |
| Description: |
Westbound SP train AVLFM (Avondale-Lafayette) pauses at Schriever with 26 cars. The train's caboose is parked next to the depot, right on the other side of the antenna tower. The Espee only owned 15 B23-7's, so finding one was always nice; and finding one of the front of a train on a sunny day was really special! |
