| Description: |
In 1973, the year after the ICG merger, GM&O GP38 721 and GP38-2 744 lead a southbound train past the Bogalusa depot on its way to South Yard.

| Description: |
Part of the "new" Louisville & Nashville line that was built from N.E. Tower to the Mississippi River as a part of the New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal project literally ran through back yards. Missouri Pacific GP38-2's 910, 866 and 947 were heading from the L&N's Gentilly Yard to the MP's Race Street Yard at the intersection of North Dorgenois (on the left) and Montegut streets. The Southern Railway's Oliver Yard was two streets over on the left, and the Southern eventually acquired all of the land between its yard and the L&N track to expand its intermodal facility. This train had an L&N crew, and its caboose was Seaboard Coast Line 0754. |

MP 2017 |
| Description: |
Missouri Pacific GP38-2's 2017 and 2050 are westbound along the Mississippi River on the New Orleans Public Belt at Jackson Avenue. The transfer run is on its way from Race Street Yard, located just below the bridge in the background; to Avondale Yard, at the west end of the Huey P. Long Bridge. The locomotives had arrived at Race Street Yard earlier in the day on Ft. Worth-New Orleans train FN.The track layout here is typical for this area of the riverfront. From left to right are the abandoned Illinois Central Gulf northbound main line, the still-active ICG southbound main, the west- and eastbound NOPB main tracks, the NOPB switching lead, and two NOPB wharf tracks. The siding leading off to the left across Tchoupitoulas Street ran down Josephine Street. Today, the IC tracks have been displaced by a concrete floodwall, and there is only one NOPB track. All of the others have been replaced by the Clarence Henry Truckway. |

Salt Mine |
| Description: |
Missouri Pacific GP38-2 2136 switches the Diamond Crystal Salt Co. mine on the shore of Lake Peigneur, south of New Iberia. On 20 November 1980, a Texaco drill working in the lake punctured the mine, flooding it. When this photo was taken, operations at the salt mine were just about over. Less than a month later, the Interstate Commerce Commission approved the abandonment of the MP's line from Port Barre through New Iberia to Jefferson Island. Since 1994 AGL Resources has been using the underlying salt dome as a a storage and hub facility for pressurized natural gas. |
