Late on a February afternoon these four locomotives were on the turntable lead at Minden, Louisiana. GP7 4160 is a locally-assigned unit, while F7A 75 and GP30's 4107 and 4101 had come up from Alexandria on train No. 66 and would be returning south on No. 65. The 75 would be renumbered 4062 in April 1978, just 14 months away; and would be out of service by the end of 1982. The geeps lasted a little longer! |
