MP B30-7A 4806 |
| Description: |
Yellow Missouri Pacific B30-7A 4806 was on a westbound transfer run at East Bridge Junction in New Orleans, along with blue MP GP38-2 2246 and Union Pacific B23-7 4679. This last unit was unusual because it was one of three UP B23-7's which were lettered UP but still retained their MP numbers. It would be renumbered 179 on 21 April 1986. |
