For many years this little building at 6225 St. Claude Ave. in New Orleans was the headquarters and the city depot for the Louisiana Southern Railroad (LSO). After the Southern Railway acquired control of the LSO in 1952 the little railroad's operations were based here for many years The Norfolk Southern merged the LSO into the Alabama Great Southern on 1 August 1993.
