Amtrak No. 58         
This was a view from the rear of Amtrak train No. 58 - the northbound PANAMA LIMITED - as it rolled through East Bridge Junction at 60 MPH. The train was on the Illinois Central Gulf heading out of New Orleans, and the track on the right was a connection to the New Orleans Public Belt and the HUEY P. LONG BRIDGE. Just beyond the signal on the left was a connection with the Southern Railway. The photo was taken from Amtrak observation-lounge car 3344, previously Seaboard Coast Line 5844 and originally Seaboard Air Line 6604.
