Description: |
After the AMERICAN FREEDOM TRAIN ran from Jackson, Mississippi to Baton Rouge over the Illinois Central Gulf, it pulled into the ICG’s NORTH BATON ROUGE YARD. In this view, the 4449 (and its tool car) had run around the train and was about to couple on to the last car so it could pull the train backwards to its display site. The Louisiana state capital building is the tall building on the left. |

AFT 4-8-4 4449 |
Description: |
Shortly after dawn on Thursday 13 May 1976 American Freedom Train 4-8-4 4449 and tool car PNWX 76 were heading north out of New Orleans on the Illinois Central Gulf in Kenner, Louisiana. The Freedom Train had run from New Orleans to Mobile over the Louisville & Nashville the previous Monday behind a pair of L&N geeps, because the railroad would not allow the 4449 to operate over some of the bridges along the Mississippi Gulf Coast, so the engine and tool car ran alone until they eventually caught up with their train. |
