LT 8119 at KCS West Yard
Title:  LT 8119 at KCS West Yard
Description:  A pair of gondolas are parked next to KCS West Yard diesel shop in New Orleans. The large crane is not a regular fixture here. Not sure if the cars of pipe are spotted to be unloaded or if the crane was used to correct a shifted load condition. I do not recall this being a regular spot for pipe unloading, though there is excellent truck access here. This shot also offers a glimpse at some of the details of the diesel shop.
