| Just two months after the Louisiana & Delta purchased a group of branch lines from the Southern Pacific, one of the two GP9R's (L&D 1751, ex-SP 3434) based at Baldwin was already painted in the L&D's colors. The other geep was ex-SP 3790. The L&D also acquired the Baldwin depot -- visible in the center of the photo -- as a crew base for the Cypremort and Bayou Sale jobs that worked out of here. The beginning of the Cypremort Branch can be seen curving off to the south just west of the depot, while the Bayou Sale Branch begins 10 miles east of here. |
