Louisiana Steam Train Association, Louisiana Purchase & Exploration Bicentennial Tour, Part 2, Mansfield to Shreveport, La. Segment, April 11, 2005. Southern Pacific/Texas & New Orleans 2-8-2 No. 745. Due to a greasing problem and fire on the right connecting rod driver bushing, I boarded the train to help the "Grease Crew", and did not shoot the "run-by" pictures of the train that I had planned. Most of this video is shot from the rear platform of the Jefferson Observation/Hospital car at the end of the train. My resulting video is long, unsteady, unedited, and often ends abruptly as the camera batteries died. Without phone service along the isolated right of way, my navigational narration is incorrect, but has been corrected with written captions.
Engineer Bill Johnson documented the story of the entire tour. Excerpts from his journal are included in this video. His entire journal can be found on the LASTA website:

Please help me to identify the two crew members on the cover and riding on the platform at 02:60: Louis Saillard, Glenn Carl, Barry Keegan, or ? I would like to include their names in the video, as well as anyone else that is included and not identified, such as Willey Meyers (?) throwing a turnout at 37:40. Thank you.
