  1. Caboose SLSF 1164

    The caboose was photographed at Viburnum, MO. It is on the lead line that ran from Cuba, MO to Buick, MO.


    Caboose SLSF 1164 is a non-extended-vision center cupola caboose

    Here are some pictures of the real x-ATSF Frisco 1164.

    There were two Frisco cabooses numbered SLSF 1164. The other one had a side door express baggage compartment, was longer, had outside braces and the center cupola was different.

    Caboose SLSF 1164.

    Administrator: Incorrect, this is a former Northeast Oklahoma (NEO) caboose. It was originally numbered on the Frisco as SLSF 164, renumbered to SLSF 1164. It is not an ex-ATSF caboose. The ex-ATSF cabooses were near end of car cupola cabooses.

  3. Hay Karl,

    Thank you for sending me the kindly tip to search. I appreciate it.


    I thought Mike Condren was the best with his photograph of caboose SLSF 1164.

    Now I know Karl is best and Mike is second place. And you are #1!

    Every where I found on frisco.org it said 1000s, including SLSF 1164, were ex Santa Fe. Now I know that Frisco had more than one caboose SLSF 1164.
    And there are others around with the same twin numbers also.

    I would think that is not a good practice by a railroad. We would never do that where I worked for 36 years.

    So caboose SLSF 1164 is also a paint and another interesting locomotive also. Maybe there are other types of 1164 running around the Midwest also ?


    Hope your new assignment is as interesting as your past adventures. We love those stories.

    Do you have to do core drillings from a little shaky boat any more?


    Thanks for you kindly help as always. I appreciate it.

    Thanks for sharing.
