MP MP15DC 1534
Title:  MP MP15DC 1534
Description:  During most of the 1970's Missouri Pacific MP15DC's were very common around New Orleans, as units 1545-1554 had been sent here right after they were built in February 1975; but finding the 1534 at Avondale Yard a bit unusual. This unit was from the very first order of MP15DC's anywhere, MP 1530-1534, built in March 1974.

Bridge Meet
Title:  Bridge Meet
Description:  For many years, both the MP and the SP weren't particular about the power they used for transfer runs across the Huey P. Long Bridge... almost any old units would do. But in 1975, both railroads assigned brand new EMD switchers to yard and transfer service around New Orleans. Here, 2-month old SP MP15AC's 2705 and 2706 on an eastbound transfer run meet 8-month old MP MP15DC 1549 -- along with GP18 1963, MP15DC 1551 and GP38-2's 2060 and 2075 -- on a westbound grain train.
