Preliminary reports said he was in the boxcar, but it was later found out he was in the locomotive.
A lot of trains stop at that location heading to the Huey P. Long bridge waiting for traffic to clear, so they could cross it & in the opposite direction to enter CSX's Gentilly yard or Norfolk Southern's Oliver yard.
