The operation in New Orleans was not successful. Some time within
the last year all that equipment was moved to La Fayette or some
place near there. The engine was an ex SP 2-6-0. Think it did
move by rail over BNSF.

Subject: [CBQ] A Touch off topic
During the 2000 Convention in Fort Worth we rode the Tarantula train
from Grapevine to the stockyards. Part of the way it was pulled by a
reconditioned steamer that was bound for New Orleans to be The Big Easy
Steam Train. Wonder what has become of that locomtive and if still
around, how it weathered Katrina?
