Da der stadig ikke
var aktivitet begyndte vi at sætte kursen sydpå mod New
Orleans. Undervejs kom vi til McComb, hvor et Illinois Central
damplokomotiv er udstillet. Tidligere lå en lokomotivfabrik i
McComb, og i den lille stationsbygning er et museum for fabrikken. En
lokal museumsfrivillig bemærkede at vi var interesserede i det
udstillede lokomotiv og åbnede museet for os.

Since there was
still no activity on the mainline we started to head south towards New
Orleans. On the way we stopped in McComb where an Illinois Central
steamer is on permanent display. McComb used to house a locomotive
factory and the depot houses a little museum. A local volunteer spotted
our interest in the displayed locomotive and opened the museum for us.
