In the mid-1950's, as a young boy, I would write to railroad public relations departments, asking for information about trains. Photos like this were often sent as a result. Date and photographer unknown, but circa 1950. The Humming Bird ran Cincinnati-New Orleans, with cars also from Chicago and St. Louis, and is seen here crossing Biloxi Bay, MS.

Unknown photographer 1950.
