KCS Local in Monroe LA does work around the yard as traffic was at a very dull moment in the area for hours on the KCS Meridian Speedway Division between Mississppi & Western Louisiana.

Arkansas Louisiana & Mississippi Rail road AKA ALM local delivers their freight to KCS in Monroe LA & Picks up after to head back across town.

ALM 1815 pulls forward towards the KCS yard to interchange some cars.

NS 1071 leads the OSJEP-05 just south of Monroe, LA as it heads north. This route has many curves.

You won't find anything here anymore except a couple of interchange tracks. This was a prosperous down-home little operation.

Odd name for this little shortline but you see Louisiana, MO is the name of a town on the Mississippi River and when they were building it........ Well, you had to be there.
