SP First 241
Title:  SP First 241
Description:  The head-end brakeman on westbound Espee train First 241 was poised to snag his orders at the Raceland Junction train order office, as a couple of young railfans and their mom looked on. These folks had come out to see Amtrak's TRANSCONTINENTAL STEAM EXCURSION, with FREEDOM TRAIN 4449, which had just passed a few minutes earlier. The locomotives on First 241 were U33C's 8659 and 8664, along with SD45 9095. Later in the day - at Lacasine, Louisiana - First 241 would overtake the excursion train and the 9095 would be cut in behind the 4449 because of a problem with the steam engine. The tracks in the foreground are the beginning of the Lockport Branch.

Westbound Coal Train
Title:  Westbound Coal Train
Description:  Southern Pacific U33C 8663, GP35 6628, GP20 4063 and GP20R 4100 power a 90-car westbound coal train up the Huey P. Long Bridge. The coal originated in Illinois on the Illinois Central Gulf and was bound for Mexico. This was not a true unit train, as it had been divided into several cuts when it was interchanged from the ICG to the SP near the east end of the bridge.
