The age of steam may be long gone, but in St. Louis there was a link to that bygone era. Frisco 1522 was a fully operational steam locomotive that ran on occasion.
In this program, you will see SLSF 1522, (which is a 1926-built 4-8-2 Mountain-Type engine, built for the St. Louis-San Francisco Railway) leading the Employee Appreciation Special for the Burlington Northern & Santa Fe Railway, and then pulling a trip at the National Railway Historical Society convention in St. Louis.
While on the BNSF Employee Appreciation Special 1522 puts on a great show as she pulls the train from Tulsa to Oklahoma City, then on to Ft. Worth. This is no amusement park train just chuffing along, 1522 really gets up and goes!
Features:
*Running on her old Frisco rails in Missouri *
Pulling the Employee Appreciation Special in Oklahoma and Texas
*Pulling the NRHS convention special from St. Louis to West Quincy
and return.
*Plenty of scenes where the locomotive is really working.
If you like steam locomotives, then you'll want to see one of steam railroadings shining stars as she helps people young and old relive the mighty days of steam!
