Frisco Meteor, I am writing a novel, "The Frisco Blues", it is set in Amory, MS and is partially about the Frisco Railroad at this time. If possible, I would like to use the of the Amory, MS depot picture image ID 2509, name 2424, 1965. Is this picture copyrighted? May I have permission to use it? Thank you very much.

Dough Hughes, in FMIG Newsletter #32, notes that the floor plan for the Cabool, MO depot was also the same for Amory (among others). http://www.frisco.org/vb/showpost.php?p=9997&postcount=3 Best Regards,
Jerome, thanks for clarifying. Yep, the more I compare photographs, the Cabool floor plan does look like a skinny critter when compared to Amory. msry77, you may want to check the All Aboard magazines published by the old Frisco Museum. Dr. Mike Condren has them at his website: http://condrenrails.com/Frisco/Frisco-Museum-All-Aboards/All-Aboards.htm There was a period of time when they ran a "Down at the Depot" feature that sometimes included depot floor plans. I do not know if Amory was included, but it seems like a reasonable candidate. Best Regards,
