73. Union Station Louisville Ky The L in L&N. Nashville is the N.
Edited on Tue Aug-10-10 11:15 AM by alfredo




I worked this yard back in the mid 60's. Dirty work. Even though the coal powered trains were history, coal dust still remains from the trains carrying coal. After a 16 hour shift, you looked like you just got out of a mine. My family goes way back in the railroad. They had a hand in constructing High Bridge over the Ky River. Other's worked the yard or repaired rail cars.
