Title:
MP Train No. 51
Description:
Missouri Pacific (Gulf Coast Lines) train No. 51, the westbound
ORLEANEAN
, was crossing the intersection of Railroad Avenue (US 69-96-287) and College Street (US 90) in Beaumont, Texas, on its way from New Orleans to Houston. The train had just left the Kansas City Southern station, passed GCL JUNCTION and was about to enter home rails.
GCL trains operated over 46.5 miles of the KCS between CS JUNCTION in DeQuincy, Louisiana and GCL JUNCTION here in Beaumont. At GCL JUNCTION, the KCS main line to Port Arthur headed south while the connection to the MP headed west. These trains also used 89.5 miles of trackage rights over the Illinois Central, between SOUTHPORT JUNCTION in New Orleans and MP JUNCTION in Baton Rouge. Trackage rights represented over one-third of the 368.4 mile-trip between New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal and Union Station in Houston. The KCS NW2 on the right was switching some customers.
