Amtrak Pooches
Title:  Amtrak Pooches
Description:  When this photo was taken 15 of Amtrak's 23 P30CH units were at New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal. A few were in service on the SUNSET, but most were inactive; however, many of these would get a "new lease on life" when Amtrak introduced its version of the AUTO-TRAIN five months later.

Noses
Title:  Noses
Description:  Throughout most of the 1970's one couldn't find Southern E-units at New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal during the day, because they came in in the evening and left the next morning. But when Amtrak took over the operation of the CRESCENT on 1 February 1979, it leased all of the Southern remaining E8A's and for the next six months there were always some of these around the engine house, making shots like this possible.
