Hello everyone, my name is ShadowSteel18 and I'm 21 years old as of 2014. I've grown up watching steam locomotives like the Frisco 1522 and have always wanted to ride a true Frisco Steam Locomotive (Mainly the Frisco 1522). My dad rode the final excursion of the 1522 in 2002 and every year I make a habit of going to the National Museum of Transportation in St. Louis to take a picture of myself next to the burly Baldwin. I hope to raise enough money to restore the Frisco 1522 to excursion service once again. My motto is "Let's bring steam back to the mainlines of the USA".
Welcome to the group, I wish you all the best in realizing your goals , that would be awesome. I saw the 1522 here in Tulsa back in 02, and one of our members here was at the throttle !
