Pulling a very short string of mismatched passenger cars is this EMD E6A unit built in July of 1942 as LN #453A. It has been repainted in the light gray & yellow scheme applied beginning in 1962. The unit lasted until being scrapped in 1970. No location was listed - does anyone recognize this spot? It could possibly be Chicago, Luisville or even Indianapolis but not sure. John H.

L&N E6A 753 |
| Description: |
When this photo was taken at New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal, the 753 was the last E6A still operating on the Louisville & Nashville. The locomotive had been built in June 1942 as the 453A, was renumbered 753 in 1946, was retired on 10 February 1971 and was used as trade-in credit with EMD. (approximate date of photo) |

LN E6A #756 - Louisville & Nashville |
| Description: |
Typical scene as the EMD E6A unit #756 heads up a long string of varnish as it runs through the countryside. The location was not identified but it could be anywhere in Kentucky, Indiana, or any other state the L&N served. The loco was built in August of 1942 as LN #456A (serial #1626 and lasted on the roster until being scrapped in 1970. This was a Polaroid photo by Jim O'Dell photo. This is one of the first, if not the very first, Polaroid photo I have ever posted. I left it in the sepia color as it seemed appropriate for the photo. |

The locomotives had been built in 1942 as the 457A and the 452B, and were among the last E6 units built before the War Production Board ended the construction of almost all passenger power. They were retired in March 1968 and October 1970. |

L&N E6A 770 |
| Description: |
Louisville & Nashville E6A units 754 and 770 had just arrived in New Orleans on train No. 33 – the southbound PIEDMONT – and were now sitting in JULIA STREET YARD. Julia Street was in the foreground and the yard office was on the right. Regular steam operations on the L&N at New Orleans ended in 1952 and a steam engine left here for the last time on 27 January 1953, which then eliminated the need for that water column on the left. |

| Description: |
The date on this photo lists it as 8/16/1960 but it seems strange that this unit is still wearing the orignal EMD paint scheme. L&N went through a repainting scheme in 1957 of black for freight and dark blue for passenger units. No photographer was listed but the photo is from the H. N. Proctor collection |

LN E6A #770 - Louisville & Nashville |
| Description: |
Beautiful profile captured by an unknown photographer, circa 1972, at the Kentucky Rwy Museum. According to NRHS website "Louisville & Nashville E6A diesel locomotive no. 770 was built in 1942 by the Electro Motive Division of GM. After its inaugural run from Louisville to Nashville, the locomotive regularly powered the road’s flagship passenger trains. Number 770 was retired in 1968 and donated to the Kentucky Railway Museum. One of only two surviving E6A models, no. 770 is the only L&N passenger diesel to be preserved. The rarity of the model, its 70 year-age and distinctive slanted-nose, as well as the historic L&N trains it pulled, qualifies it for the National Register of Historic Places." |

LN E6A #770 - Louisville & Nashville |
| Description: |
One of 2 L&N E6A's that survived the scrap yards, it became part of the Kentucky RR Museum in July of 1968 and now is housed in New Haven, KY. The unit was originally LN #450B and wears the 1962 paint scheme of light gray and yellow. Unfortunately, I believe it has deteriorated significantly from this photo. |

LN E6A #772 - Louisville & Nashville |
| Description: |
Originally built as Louisville & Nashville E6A #452B in the coupled pair set, this loco was renumbered and then repainted around 1957 into the drab dark blue for passenger service - a cost cutting measure by the directors. The unit was eventually scrapped in 1971. The photo is from the H. N. Proctor collection but no photographer listed. |
