John Batiste Nepveux |
Description: |
Southern Pacific engineer John Batiste Nepveux was born in Saint Martinville, Louisiana on 21 June 1903 and went to work for the SP (Texas & New Orleans) in 1923. By the time Amtrak began in 1971 he was the regular engineer on the SUNSET between New Orleans and Lafayette. (Since the train only ran three times a week, he was the train’s ONLY regular engineer!) Here he was, standing next to former Union Pacific E8A 929 (Amtrak 326) prior to the train’s departure from New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal in October 1971. He retired on 20 June 1973, the day before his 70th birthday, with 50 years of service and passed away on 29 October 1979 at age 76. (approximate date of photo) |

UP E8 931 |
Description: |
UP E8 931 on Train Number 7 at Grand Island, Nebraska on an unknown day in April 1961, Kodachrome by Dick Rumbolz, Chuck Zeiler collection. The are a lot of presumptions about this photo, since the slide is labeled UP 931 G. I. 4-61. From the handwriting I assumed the author was Dick Rumbolz, I assumed G. I. was Grand Island. If anyone knows better, leave a Comment and I will correct the caption information. According to the June 1965 edition of the Official Guide, Train Number 7-5 was a Chicago to Los Angeles unnamed daily train, departing Chicago at 7:05 PM as Milwaukee Road Train 19 to Omaha, becoming Number 7 from Omaha to Ogden, then Number 5 to Los Angeles. In addition to the head end business, it also had sleeping cars and unreserved seat coaches and offered Buffet-Lounge service between Green River and Las Vegas. |
