| Description: |
On a sunny December afternoon, 6-month-old Amtrak SDP40F 615 and ex-B&O E8A 203 were being fueled and watered after having arrived on the PANAMA LIMITED. On the right is the locker building, where engine crews registered going on and off duty. The next two tracks closer to us were ready tracks, the track in the center is used by trains backing into the station (off to the right) from the wye, while in the foreground is the train inspection pit. The outbound track is on the other side of the locker building. |

Amtrak PANAMA |
| Description: |
Amtrak SDP40F 616 and a sibling power the northbound PANAMA LIMITED out of New Orleans over New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal track. The debris along the track are the remnants of the platforms at the former Carrollton Avenue Station. The former inbound main line had been located to the right of the train, but was removed in around 1969. Signs such as the one on the right were placed on several of the communication poles along here so that engineers on inbound trains stopping at the station wouldn't block Carrollton Junction, where the NOUPT Eastern and Western Connections separated. When NOUPT opened in 1954, the common use of train radios was still a decade or more in the future! (date approximate) |
