SP RSD5 2865         
Southern Pacific Alco RSD5 units 2865, 2859 and 2867 were on an eastbound transfer run on the Southern Railway’s OUTER BELT, between the Elysian Fields Avenue overpass and L&N JUNCTION. The train delivered 39 cars to the L&N at L&N JUNCTION and then continued on to the Southern's OLIVER YARD with 82 cars. The 2865 showed evidence of its recent renumbering from Texas & New Orleans 164. It had been built in October 1953, was retired in July 1969 and was used as trade-in credit to EMD.
