Shore Line Train         
A southward Shore Line District train enters the north leg of the wye at North Slidell, and it will now head north to Bogalusa on the former GM&O main line. This train is a combination of the regular Shore Line District local and an empty ballast train. GP10 8136 came out of Covington with the local and picked up the ballast train -- including GP10 8029 and GP38 9523 -- at Lacombe. A typical Shore Line train had 15-20 cars and a caboose, but this on has 62 cars and two cabooses!
