CSX Detour Train on CN         
Between 15 and 18 March 2004 CSX closed its main line between Montgomery and New Orleans for a track maintenance blitz, and during this time CSX delivered some trains to the Canadian National at Memphis for movement to New Orleans. Here were SD50 8531 and SD40-2 units 8149 and 8030 with 91 cars of mixed freight on the CN at Hammond, Louisiana. Traffic was gradually restored over the weekend of 20-21 March.
