L&N FP7 652         
A bow-wave of road grime had already dirtied the side of recently repainted Louisville & Nashville FP7 652 at GENTILLY YARD, New Orleans; but its nose was still clean! This locomotive had been built in June 1951 as the 624 and was renumbered 652 six months later. Units 650-662 were equipped with Automatic Train Stop and were used extensively between Mobile and New Orleans until the ATS was removed in 1965. The 652 was renumbered 694 in December 1966 and retired in January 1969.
