IC Train 208 |
Description: |
It's a few minutes after 5 P.M. and Illinois Central train No. 208, the NORTHEASTERN LIMITED, has just backed out of Shreveport Union Station and is now moving forward, beginning its 313-mile, 9-hour journey to Meridian, Mississippi and a connection with the Southern Railway's northbound PELICAN. Today's train has four mail-and-express cars, a Railway Post Office and three coaches, although it typically ran with just one coach. In the station, Kansas City Southern train No. 10 from New Orleans is being combined with train No. 16 which originated in Port Arthur and will soon depart for Kansas City. IC No. 208 - and its counterpart No. 205 - would be discontinued between Vicksburg and Meridian on 24 October 1967, and between Shreveport and Vicksburg on 30 March 1968.

IC GP7 8903 |
Description: |
Illinois Central (Gulf) 8903 was one of 14 IC GP7 units built for passenger service in 1952-53. By the time this photo was taken at North Baton Rouge Yard its stem generator and water tanks has been removed, but it still had its hood-mounted air reservoirs. The locomotive was rebuilt as ICG GP10 7918 the year after this photo was taken, and it was sold to the Arkansas Midland in January 1992. |
