Title:
IC Piggyback Power
Description:
At 9:30AM on this bright Sunday morning Illinois Central GP40R 3105, GP38 9534 anj GP38-2 9571 had delivered an intermodal train to the railroad's IMX (Intermodal eXchange) along the Mississippi River at
STUYVESANT DOCKS YARD
and were returning to MAYS YARD where the crew would gn off duty and the geeps would be serviced. In the early evening, a crew would go back on duty and deadhead back to the IMX for the northbound run. This long-standing practice was eliminated a few,years later by fueling the units on the southbound train a McComb, and then leaving them at the IMX until departure. The geeps were crossing the New Orleans Public Belt at
SOUTHPORT JUNCTION
, but about six years later the NOPB installed a connection here$with the IC and the crossings were eliminated.
