L&D Breaux Bridge Branch |
Description: |
What a treat. As I snapped pictures of the Alexandria Branch, my ears were greeted by trumpets from the east. My reward fro waiting was seeing L&D 1707 coming in from Breaux Bridge with a long string of covered hoppers. |

Signals at BR Junction |
Description: |
I do not know what the correct name for these signals are. I have to assume they were used to tell the switch operator what the approach signals were showing. Notice that the signals are semaphores! |
