Seaboard System yard job Y104-14 was on the Illinois Central Gulf A2 track, as it crossed over from the Norfolk Southern to the New Orleans Public Belt (on the left) at East City Junction. East Bridge Tower is just on the other side of the diverging track, which the train will use. Strainght ahead was the ICG's MAYS YARD, while around the curve on the NOPB was the Central Avenue grade crossing and beginning of the HUEY P. LONG BRIDGE. Y104 was on its way from the SBD's GENTILLY YARD in eastern New Orleans to the Southern Pacific's AVONDALE YARD at the other end of the HUEY OP. LONG BRIDGE, and an Espee crew will get on the train at Central Avenue. Y104 had a trio of Espee units: SP SD45R's 7409, 7402 and 7411. |
