Switching |
| Description: |
ICG GP30 2272 and GP10 8237 were switching the northward Shore Line Branch local in front of the unused Covington depot. A few years later, the depot was renovated as a restaurant; but the railroad here was abandoned in 1991. The house track is still in place on the left, while siding on the right served the Alexius Brothers Hardware Store and Lumber Yard. |

Depot |
| Description: |
This depot was built by the New Orleans-Great Northern in about 1921, and it was subsequently owned by the Gulf Mobile & Northern, Gulf Mobile & Ohio, and Illinois Central Gulf, although its use as a open agency ended before the 1972 merger of the IC and GM&O. The Illinois Central used the depot from the time it was constructed until it abandoned operation between Covington and Hammond in 1933. The building's brick construction reflected Covington's status as a Parish seat and the largest community along the Shore Line Branch, as the other depots along the line were wood.In 1930 the GM&N introduced the New Orleans-Covington ST. TAMMANY SPECIAL, a new Brill gasoline-electric motor train featuring a parlor-observation car; but this didn't last long. The Great Depression, increasing automobile ownership, and better roads all took their toll on railroad passenger service here, as well as most other branch lines. Throughout the 1930's service we provided by motorcars, including some leased from the Burlington Route. In 1939 the motorcar service was replaced by busses operated by GM&N subsidiary Gulf Transport. The building is located on North New Hampshire Street, between East Lockwood and East Kirkland; and has been used for various commercial purposes since the early 1980's. |

ICG Curve |
| Description: |
This is the 5.75 degree curve that took the ICG Shore Line District off of East Gibson Street and north towards the former GM&O depot on North New Hampshire Street. When the East Louisiana Railroad built this line into Covington in 1888, its original depot was on the outside of this curve, where the trees are on the left of the track. The curved track was the main line, but it also formed the east leg of a wye. The track on East Gibson continued left and formed the south leg of the wye. The south and west legs connected about a block away, just past Vermont Street. |

End of the Line |
| Description: |
This view was looking west – towards Hammond and Baton Rouge – near the end of the ICG Shore Line District on the west side of Covington, Louisiana. While the Shore Line was a former Gulf Mobile & Ohio/Gulf Mobile & Northern/New Orleans-Great Northern branch, the abandoned line between here and Hammond had been built by the Baton Rouge, Hammond & Eastern, which was controlled by the IC though the Yazoo & Mississippi Valley. The former IC track had been removed in about 1972 and the track here was abandoned in 1991. |

Wye-2 |
| Description: |
This view was facing west near the end of the ICG Shore Line District on the west side of Covington, Louisiana. The track on the left was the south side of a wye, and once connected with a rail line from Baton Rouge via Hammond. This connecting line was completed into Covington in 1908 by a subsidiary of the Illinois Central, the Baton Rouge, Hammond & Eastern. The IC abandoned the track between here and Hammond in 1934 and subsequently sold it to the Gaylord Container Corp. so it could operate pulpwood trains from Hammond to Bogalusa via the GM&N. Gaylord became Crown Zellerbach, and the track was removed in 1972.The track curving off to the right is the east leg of the wye. Up until 1932 this was the main line north to Folsom, seven miles; but now it was just a short stub serving Poole Lumber Co. There was no run-around track in Covington, so the locomotive on the Shore Line local had to use the wye to get onto the opposite end of its train. The track here was abandoned in 1991. |

| Description: |
This view was looking west -- towards Hammond and Baton Rouge -- from the very end of the ICG Shore Line District. While the Shore Line was a former Gulf Mobile & Ohio/Gulf Mobile & Northern/New Orleans-Great Northern branch, the abandoned line here had been built by the Baton Rouge, Hammond & Eastern, which was controlled by the IC though the Yazoo & Mississippi Valley. The track had been removed about eight years earlier; but the remains of a small bridge were left behind as a reminder of what once was here. |

Gibson Street |
| Description: |
After crossing the Bogue Falaya into Covington, the ICG Shore Line District ran down East Gibson Street for two and a half blocks before turning north. The northward local is about to cross North Columbia Street and enter the 5.75 degree curve leading to the railroad station. ICG GP38 9542 is the former GM&O 723, and this was one of the very few times I saw a former GM&O unit on this former GM&O branch. The parking lot on the left of the train was in front of an A&P Super Market, and the red brick building beyond there is the U. S. Post Office.The train is a little longer than usual, with 20 cars and a caboose. It has ATSF bulkhead flatcar 94582 for Poole Lumber, ICG 50' box car 516327 for Marsolan Feed, six insulated box cars of beer for the upcoming Labor Day weekend (BN 749009, 747248, ATSF 525287, MP 782085, 775592, 781662), four empty IC pulpwood cars which will be dropped off at Triangle Timber tomorrow (1829, 63660, 1599, 1199), two empty gondolas for the P&W scrap yard (CAGY 13035, SCL 130413), three more gondolas that will got out tomorrow (L&N 171416, 36677?, SCL 130640), caboose 199034, and three empty covered hoppers that were just picked up at USS Agri-Chem (ATSF 300620, IC 765333, ICG 765668). |

The train has 17 cars: an empty SP box car, a loaded KCS box car for Marsolan Feed, three loaded beer cars, six empty pulpwood cars, two empty gondolas for the scrap yard, caboose 199034, three empty covered hoppers, and one empty box car. The four cars behind the caboose were picked up at USS Agri-Chem, about three miles east of here. |

| Description: |
The northward Shore Line District Local is about to pass the former GM&O depot, which was being remodeled as a restaurant. The track in the foreground was originally the west leg of the East Louisiana Railroad wye. By this time, it was just a siding that served Marsolan Feed & Seed, a regular customer of the railroad; and was occasionally used as a team track. |

Bogue Falaya Crossing |
| Description: |
ICG GP10 8237 crosses the Bogue Falaya with the northward Shore Line District local. The interesting bridge girder was built by the Edgemoor Iron Works of Wilmington, Delaware in 1888, when the East Louisiana Railroad constructed this line into Covington. The trestle shows evidence of the upgrading received by the entire branch in 1980; but despite this investment, the line was abandoned just ten years after this photo was taken. |

Shore Line Local |
| Description: |
The southward ICG Shore Line District local is parked on the main line in the P&W Industries scrap yard, just north of the former Covington depot. After the train arrived in Covington and did all of its switching, it would usually tie-up here, ready to depart for Bogalusa the next morning. By the time the crew parked their train, a railroad station wagon would be waiting to bring them back to Bogalusa; and the following morning, they would return to Covington and take the train back to Bogalusa. The local's locomotive had to use the wye at the end of the line to run around its train; so if the local arrived with its engine running long-hood forward, it would depart this way too. |

ICG GP28 9430 |
| Description: |
Illinois Central Gulf GP28 9430 was an unusual locomotive in several respects. It was one of only 13 GP28's on the ICG, one of only 24 ICG units painted solid orange, and one of only 31 GP28's built. The paper air filter, in front of the bell, was a later ICG modification. When photographed here at Covington, Louisiana it was making a very unusual appearance on the Shore Line Branch local. |

ICG GP10 8461 |
| Description: |
This unit was one of only a few Paducah-rebuilt geeps with a genuine EMD slanting low nose. The 8461 had been built as IC GP9 9305, and its frame number was confirmed as 5553-6. It was rebuilt as orange-and-white GP10 8461 in March 1977, with a standard ICG flat-top nose; but this was damaged in an accident at Bluford, Illinois in early 1979. The 8461 was repaired with an EMD low nose, probably from IC GP18 9423, and received the current orange-and-gray paint job and a new rebuild date of December 1979. |

West 27th Street |
| Description: |
IC GP10 8033 leads the twice-weekly Shore Line District local along West 27th Street in Covington, near the end of its 65-mile trip from Bogalusa. It was also near the end of the line for this branch. The track was abandoned in 1991 and this area doesn't look anything like this anymore! Today's train had six cars: bulkhead flats TOE 4085 and 4037 with building material for Poole Lumber Co., insulated box car (RBL) MRS 2091 with beer for Champagne Beverage Co., and empty pulpwood cars IC 1472, GM&O 4028 and GM&O 3615. The caboose was ICG 199320, the regular car on this run, built in January 1976. |
