Jefferson Avenue Interlocking         
One of the more interesting pieces of trackwork in the New Orleans area was this crossing of the New Orleans Public Belt (in the right foreground) and the Illinois Central Gulf. The NOPB's COTTON WAREHOUSE YRAD was on the right and the orange water tower was in the ICG's STUYVESANT DOCKS YARD. These crossings were removed around 1995, when the two railroads combined and simplified their tracks between Southport Junction and Stuy Docks.
