New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal number 1 was one of three SW8's built for NOUPT in December 1953. Number 2 was sold to Jones & Laughlin Steel in around 1960, but 1 and 3 survived long enough to receive Amtrak paint. They were sold to NASA in August 1990 and provided parts to maintain the space agency's fleet of ex-Air Force SW8's at the Kennedy Space Center. |
