| This is a view facing east - timetable south - on the Kansas City Southern's NEW ORLEANS SUBDIVISION at Orleans Junction. This is eight miles from the railroad's WEST YARD and 11 miles from NEW ORLEANS UNION PASSENGER TERMINAL The track on the right is the Illinois Central Gulf's BATON ROUGE DISTRICT, while the crossing in the background is the ICG's McCOMB DISTRICT. The KCS abandoned its track here in 1985 after it obtained trackage rights over 6.5 miles of the ICG, between Frellsen and East Bridge Junction. |
