Southern No. 2
Title:  Southern No. 2
Description:  Southern 6908 and 6913 were two of the four E-units on the northbound SOUTHERN CRESCENT as the train was crossing the South Carrollton Avenue underpass. This was 2.6 miles after departing from New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal, and this bridge was one of about a dozen grade separations built as a part of the NOUPT project around 1950. Almost all of the underpasses had decorative concrete beams outside of the plate girders; but these had been removed here, probably after being hit by trucks. Carrollton Avenue Station was at the left end of this bridge, and you can still see one of the stairways leading down from the two platforms to the sidewalk. (approximate day)

NB CRESCENT
Title:  NB CRESCENT
Description:  Just 10 days after Amtrak took over operation of the CRESCENT, train 20 was making its station stop at Meridian. The trains cosisted of E8A's 6909, 6913 and 6905 and nine cars: baggage-dormitory car 1406, coaches 817, 5285 and 844, coach-lounge 3850, diner 8382, and 10-6 sleepers 2002 DAN RIVER, 2860 TYE RIVER and 2862 FRENCH BROAD RIVER. Except for the Amtrak baggage-dormitory car and the ex-Southern coach-lounge, the train looks much as it did when it was the SOUTHERN CRESCENT. Cars 5285, 3850, 8382, 2860 and 2862 were lettered SOUTHERN but wore Amtrak numbers, while car 817, 844 and 2002 still had their Southern lettering and numbers.
