Texas & Pacific train 27, the westbound LOUISIANA DAYLIGHT, was beginning its all-day journey to Fort Worth as it pulled out of the TP-MP Terminal station on Annunciation Street in New Orleans. The locomotive was modernized Pacific 706, built by Baldwin in 1919 as the 606, renumbered in 1925, upgraded with roller bearings in 1945 and retired in February 1953.
