    Now that is a cool find! Could a person use C&EI and Frisco Lines decals to make such a car?

    Other than being white on black, how does this look?

    The "SYSTEM" should be smaller. I found some in a 1903 Frisco System magazine

    A demanding and stressful job with a lot of responsibility. Lot of railroad history here, even if it isn't on the Frisco System map. Happy to hear you have some good memories.
