L&N 2-8-0 1279
Title:  L&N 2-8-0 1279
Description:  Louisville & Nashville H-27 class 2-8-0 1279 was switching passenger cars at the railroad’s JULIA STREET YARD in New Orleans. The 1279 did not have Automatic Train Stop equipment, so it could not be used on the main line between Mobile and Gentilly and was restricted to yard and transfer service while in New Orleans. It had been built by the L&N’s SOUTH LOUISVILLE SHOPS as serial number 115 in 1911 and was retired on 7 July 1953. (approximate date of photo)

L&N 2-8-0 1279
Title:  L&N 2-8-0 1279
Description:  Louisville & Nashville 2-8-0 1279 was powering a southbound transfer run over the Bay Street grade crossing in New Orleans. The crossing was located between NO&NE Tower (milepost 802.7) and Franklin Avenue, and it was closed after the Franklin Avenue underpass was completed in April 1952. The track on the left was the north lead to Bay Street Yard, while the one on the right was the northbound main line. The 1279 was one of 47 H-27 class Consolidations. The 1234-1258 were built by Baldwin in 1910, while the 1259-1280 were built by the L&N at South Louisville Shops in 1910-1911; however, many of these locomotives were upgraded and reclassified as H-27A or H-27B. At this time, the 1279 did not have Automatic Train Stop equipment, so it could not be used on the main line between Mobile and Gentilly. It was retired on 7 July 1953. (approximate day of photo)
