Title:
AMTK dome-obs 9310
Description:
Amtrak dome-observation car 9310, originally Wabash 1601 and then N&W 1601, was bringing up the rear of a special train moving cars for Amtrak's 1977 TRANSCONTINENTAL STEAM EXCURSION from New Orleans to Birmingham. The train originated at New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal and was powered by Louisville & Nashville GP38 4007 and Amtrak E9A 428. It was photographed at 7:15AM passing through New Orleans City Park on the Southern Railway.

Title:
Amtrak Steam Excursion
Description:
An impatient motorist watches as Amtrak dome-observation 9310, formerly Wabash and N&W 1601, brings up the rear of the 1977 TRANSCONTINENTAL STEAM EXCURSION as the train passes through Kenner, Louisiana on the Illinois Central Gulf. The train is running about three and a half hours late because of problems with former SP 4449, and is being powered by a pair of ICG GP10's. In a few minutes it will pause at the ICG's Mays Yard so some of its passengers can transfer to the northbound PANAMA LIMITED for their trip home. Mays Yard is about 20 minutes from the train's destination, New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal. Two days later the train left New Orleans over the SP for Portland.
