Slug Set |
| Description: |
The MP only had four SW1500's, and they spent their early years in the New Orleans area. When they were shopped and repainted in late 1981, they were also wired to operate with slugs; and three of them (1518, 1520, 1521) returned in October with brand-new slugs 1417-1419. In this view on a ready track at Avondale Yard, 1520, 1417, 1418 and 1518 wait between assignments. Their jobs included deliveries to other railroads at the east end of the Huey P. Long Bridge, pushing trains over the bridge, and transfer runs across the bridge to the MP's Race Street Yard -- a 17 mile trip. A set like this could pull a very heavy train across the bridge, with its 1.25% grades; but they were VERY, VERY slow. Before long, all of the slug sets were being used individually as yard power; mostly at Avondale, but occasionally at Race Street. They left in July 1982 and never returned! |

MP GP7 1785 |
| Description: |
This GP7 was originally numbered 4324 and it was equipped for passenger service, so it was built with "torpedo boat" air reservoirs. It was subsequently renumbered 335 and then 1785, and along the way it received a factory low nose and a snow plow. It was photographed along the Mississippi River at RACE STREET YARD, and was retired three years later. |

UP (MP) train CH pauses in the Monroe yard on its way from Chicago to Houston. At that time, the route from Little Rock through Monroe and Alexandria was used as a alternate route to and from south Texas. In addition to UP C30-7 2406, the train also has yellow MP SD40-2 3298 and blue MP SD40 3063 -- a typical mix of power from that era. I don't know if a forward-facing locomotive was added before the train left! |

MP 2501 |
| Description: |
This locomotive was orginally 601, and then 2501. Here it has been re-engined with a normally-aspirated 645 engine, making it essentially a GP38; but not renumbered. After the MP decided to put its re-engined GP35's into their own number series, it became the 2601. |
