    Hello, I am doing some research on an Engine 1352 and I am trying to determine if the one in question is the same as Frisco Engine 1352.

    This photo is my Great, Great Grandfather atop an Engine 1352 https://imgur.com/a/7Olhn

    Do you think that is the same as this engine? https://thelibrary.org/lochist/frisco/friscoline/images/photos/p01389.jpg

    The engines have some remarkable similarities though my photo has no Frisco branding. I also cannot figure out why Frisco Engine 1532 would be in Lewiston, Idaho where this photo was taken.

    I was very excited to see the sticky thread about engine 1352 when I came across this website, I figure you all are the experts to help. Thank you.

    The older image of 1352 is an NP locomotive

    I could not make out the letters before 1352 on the cab. NP as in Northern Pacific? Certainly would make a lot more sense in Idaho. Thank you.

    The unusual headlight mounting definitely points to Northern Pacific.

    It is NP. Frisco's 4-6-0s like this were in the 700 series.

    Great link, it looks like #1354 is the same S-4 class and located in a town I drive through every now and again, I will have to check it out next time I am there. Thank you!

    1354 looks like a simplified S-4--it was rebuilt with new cylinders ca. 1918. The cylinders are different from your original picture. It's much the same, though.
