| A trio of MP SD40-2's prepares to take a transfer run from Race Street Yard -- along the Mississipppi River near downtown -- across the Mississippi River to Avondale Yard. Race Steet Yard was closed in early 1984, and the land was used as the primary parking lot for the 1984 Louisiana World Exposition. The track in the foreground, parallel to the train, belongs to the ICG. |
