Along S. Central Avenue, the railroad tracks were twisted and eroded by a tidal surge of approximately 30 feet. In Hurricane Camille, the tracks acted as a levee and contained the surge. The over-wash from the storm acted as a tsunami and traveled well inland past Hwy 90 and Interstate 10 to the north.
