We were gathered at the north end of the Amtrak depot there to shoot the breeze and watch a few trains passing by.  Amtrak train #59 arrived at 1:41 PM that day, headed up with one of their new ALC-42 locomotives.  The train was there but a few minutes to discharge several passengers, then departed for the last leg of its trip to New Orleans.
