Charlie - A great one! I had not seen that card before. The 1904 World's Fair was an incredible event here in St Louis. I still remember my late grandmother telling me about her visits there as a child - they rode the train down to Forest Park for the fair (Wabash). Here's another favorite of mine - the Texas Special nearing StL roaring along behind a Frisco 1500 4-8-2. How about those of you who have Frisco post cards posting some of your favorites? Ken
Keep 'em coming! I was getting a bit bored with the same repeated topics on the site and thought I would try to stimulate something new. Ken
Will end tonight's posts with one depicting my favorite train - the flight of The Meteor, #'s 9 & 10, (in its early days!). Ken
Here's the post card that was the exact basis for the artwork on the Frisco's public timetables in the later 1950's and 1960's. Only problem was - they did not tell the artist who modified this pic that the SLSF had no E8B's! Ken ps - Come on folks! ..... Nobody has any other Frisco post cards to offer up?
