| This was a view through the fireman’s windshield of Louisville & Nashville E7A 780 on train No. 9, the southbound PAN-AMERICAN, as the train prepared to back into New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal at SOUTH WYE JUNCTION. On the left was Earhart Boulevard, while just ahead was the South Dupre Street grade crossing and beyond that was an Illinois Central switch engine with a cut of gondolas. The PAN-AMERICAN was the last L&N passenger train serving New Orleans and was discontinued on 1 May 1971, with the beginning of Amtrak. (approximate date of photo) |
