NOPB Passenger Train on Huey Long Bridge |
Description: |
While NOPB now runs bridge excursions with its two restored Wabash pullman coaches, a NOPB "passenger train" in 2003 was a rare event. In this case, the Belt provided engines 1501 (now 2008) and 2002 for an 10-coach AAPRCO bridge excursion. The American Association of Private Railroad Car Owners held their 2003 convention at the NO Union Passenger Terminal. Ten of the 30-some cars at NOUPT were selected for the bridge trip. |

France Road Terminal after Katrina |
Description: |
A view from a NOPB hospital train (for car recovery), 2-months post Katrina. The power of flood waters to either wash away roads and track is evident. Water washing away soil under tarmac creating sinkholes across the entire area was amazing. NOPB operations have returned;port intermodal operations remain mostly absent by the end of 2009 |
