Amtrak train No. 1, the Westbound Sunset Limited, is switched at New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal - Track 5. This is during the transcontinental era of the Sunset Limited. Inbound off the CSX this train's consist was P40 809, F40 321, 1208, 39914, 32073 California, 32039, 38015, 33025, 34057, 39954, & 31033. At New Orleans the third car, sleeper 32073 California, was set out for mechanical issues and replaced with sleeper 32105 Oregon. I would ride this train from New Orleans to Lake Charles where I would meet Lowell McManus and begin an epic road trip to Mexico. |
