From Richard Crabtree on Frisco Rails Across Missouri: Here we see **Frisco No. 1017 4-6-2 Pacific Class** Built by Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1910 leaving the Frisco Depot at **Tower Grove in St. Louis Missouri** with "***The Sunnyland***" to Memphis in the early 1940s Photo by C. E. Prusia, Don Wirth Collection Karl Brand: The Pacific TYPE locomotive has the northbound Sunnyland, train 808, in tow at Grand Ave and will soon arrive at St Louis Union Station.
The photo and caption are in the Archive... The number on the semaphore instrument case gives away the location. The Chouteau Ave Viaduct is visible in the background. http://frisco.org/mainline/wp-conte...to-Memphis-in-the-early-1940s-C.E.-Prusia.jpg
In the 1930s, the Sunnyland had a through sleeper to Florida and an Observation lounge car. Ken McElreath
