At this time, GM&O 50 was owned by HARD ROCK CAFE co-founder and HOUSE OF BLUES founder Isaac Tigrett. When he was in New Orleans developing the HOUSE OF BLUES here, he usually stayed on this car at NOUPT. Eventually, he decided to keep the car in New Orleans and leased this siding from the NOPB. The location next to the French Quarter made it convenient for him to get to work and for entertaining guests. The car had been regularly used by Tigrett's grandfather Ike when he was president of the GM&N and then the GM&O. |
