I own caboose #1215, purchased in May of 1994. Moved it from Leeds to Atmore Alabama and completely restored it including marker lights. It was in the manderin orange and white when I got it. Just repainted again last month so it looks great. Have an orginial Frisco 2 part car stencil and used it. #1215 is my office and anyone is welcome to come visit and relive the golden days. 251-294-2725. P.S. Just added a single lense SLSF signal to my collection of Frisco equipment.

Working to do my part to preserve the memories of the best railroad company.

 

Is that you, Jerry ? jm
