Southern GP9 6258 |
Description: |
Southern Railway GP9 6258 leads an eastbound transfer run over BACK BELT at the Canal Boulevard underpass. The train is on its way from the KCS interchange in Metairie to the Southern's Oliver Yard. The 6258 was built in November 1956 as Central of Georgia 160. The Southern acquired the CofG in 1963, but the unit retained its original number until the Southern renumbered all of its GP9's into a common number series in 1972. When photographed here, the 6258 was finishing out its career in yard and transfer service. It was retired the next year and sold for scrap. The bridge here was one of about two dozen grade separations built as a part of the New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal Project in the early 1950's. |

SOU 6268 |
Description: |
When this photo was taken, the Southern normally kept four MP15DC's and four GP9's for yard and transfer service in and around New Orleans. In this view from the Galvez Street overpass, GP9's 6258, 6368 and 6263 occupy the West Tie Up Track at Oliver Yard (along with an unidentified tank car), while MP15DC 2369 and a trio of GP50's (7032, 7016 and 7072) sit on the East Tie Up Track. The fourth GP9 -- 6266 -- was switching in the yard. In less than a year, the old geeps would be replaced with brand new MP15DC' |

Southern Geeps |
Description: |
Southern Railway GP7 8252 and GP9 6263 were on the West Tie-Up Track at the railroad's OLIVER YARD in New Orleans. These geeps had replaced NW2's in yard and transfer service around the New Orleans area, and were themselves replaced by new MP15DC units in 1982. The 8252 had been built in 1951 as the 2157 and was sold for scrap in 1981, at which time it was replaced here by a GP9. The empty space between the trucks - on each side of the unit - had been occupied by a pair of 400-gallon water tanks when it had a steam generator, but it still had an 800-gallon fuel tank along the centerline of the unit. GP9 6263 had been built in 1956 as Central of Georgia 164, and it was sold for scrap in 1983. |

WM GP9 #6404 - Western Maryland |
Description: |
Apparently on its way back to LaGrange on a trade-in, this retired Western Maryland GP9 is still wearing its "circus" paint scheme of red and white minus the lettering. History - EMD,2/1955 serial #20355, nee-WM 29, The tall nose was chopped down in October of 1964, renumbered in 1976 as the Chessie roster as WM #6404. The loco was traded into EMD in 1985. This appears to be a photo after the trade-in as it sat in an Akron, OH, during its travel back to Illinois. No exact date was given nor any photographer's name. |
