The big stop of the day
Title:  The big stop of the day
Description:  The stop that was posted on the UP Steam Programs website was here at Strasburg, where it seemed everyone for 50 miles around turned out. The 4014 arrives, seen from the Wagner St overpass, just west of the station site, and where there is a now isolated yard full of relics.

Tight view
Title:  Tight view
Description:  A closer in look shows the crowd, as well as the lift truck, and some of the odds and ends that are now land locked here: a box car, a stock car, a former PFE NW 2, and tucked in behind the silos, a pair of DRGW reefers, one of which can be seen to the left of the silo. It seems all of Strasburgs 1402 residents are in attendance.

Southern NW2 1058
Title:  Southern NW2 1058
Description:  Southern Railway NW2 1058 was powering a short westbound transfer run along former New Orleans Terminal Co. trackage at L&N Junction. The little train is on the Freight Lead and is crossing a Louisville & Nashville industrial spur. Up until 1954, this L&N track and another one next to it were the main line into downtown New Orleans. The track became a spur serving an industry on Elysian Fields Avenue at Florida Boulevard in 1954, and it was removed shortly after this photo was taken.

The two tracks on the left of the train are the NOTCO main line. The bridge over the train is Interstate Highway 10, while the bridge in the background is Franklin Avenue. The 1058 was built in September 1948 as the 2267 and it spent most of its life at New Orleans. It was renumbered 1058 in December 1972, and was withdrawn from service at New Orleans in June 1980.
