LOUISIANA'S BOXCAR

After extensive study of the Merci Train Boxcar located on the north side of the Old State Capitol, Louisiana students created gifts which show our French heritage and cultural diversity. This crate, our Louisiana Boxcar, will carry these gifts to students in France as a cultural exchange in June, 2000. Winners of the Design the Boxcar contest are shown below.
