Hammond, LA: loading strawberries

In this photo from a 1930 National Geographic, workers load strawberries onto a refrigerated train in Hammond, Louisiana. Looks like it might have been on the Illinois Central.
Christian Goepel Thanks for sharing. This would be on the IC, yes. Hammond once called itself the strawberry capital of the nation.
Dennis DeBruler That looks like a longer wait to unload than we sometimes see at grain elevators during harvest season.
