NL&G 46 |
| Description: |
The lettering on this locomotive may read North Louisiana & Gulf, but it was actually owned by MidLouisiana Rail, a subsidiary of MidSouth Rail. GP38 number 46 was on a southbound train at Dodson, on the former Rock Island line between Hodge and Winnfield, with five chip hoppers and two tank cars. The locomotive was built in December 1967 as Pennsylvania-Reading Seashores Line 2000, and the extension of the front wall of the cab into the nose was to accomodate a console in the middle of the cab for bi-directional operation. The locomotive became Contrail 7660 in 1976 and NL&G 46 in May 1983, and moved on to the Iowa Interstate as their 600 sometime after this photo was taken. |

NL&G GP38 46 |
| Description: |
This image of North Louisiana & Gulf GP38 46 illustrates the built-out cab front that was used on 15 Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines GP38's, 14 Penn Central GP38's and 5 Reading SD45's between 1967 and 1971. The design provided extra space inside the cab on units equipped with a dual-control console. This was a large box in the middle of the cab, with a set of controls on each side, and was offered as an alternative to using two complete sets of controls in opposite corners of the cab. This unit was built as PRSL 2000, and was subsequently Conrail 7660, NL&G 46, Iowa Interstate 600, GMTX 2080 and then GMTX 2690. Dodson, Louisiana is on the former Rock Island line between Hodge and Winnfield. |
