    I was doing a search and found a map of the Frisco Railway line. I have attached it too.

    I blew up the area in Southeast Missouri, for anyone interested. I have attached a copy of it for you to look at.

    For those of you that are interested, I have attached photographs of the depots that are in Dunklin County, MO.

    The depot photographs include both the Frisco and the St. Louis Southwestern (SLSW) aka Cotton Belt.

    If you have any further pictures of the depots, engines, cars, etc. please post.

    Am looking for memorabilia in this county!

    Appreciate any help!

    On those photographs I uploaded, you will see the town, division and the railroad that they were located on.

    You will also see the date of when it was taken.

  3. These are extremely nice. Thanks for the post.

    I was wondering if the Clarkstown depot was a track crew's storage shed or the crew's outhouse. Ha Ha ! But maybe they did have crew outhouses?

    In this photograph of the Holcomb depot is a 1951 Chevy, like my dad gave to me when I went to Washington University. Great memories!

    I had to stop when Jack Buck of the St. Louis Cardinals crossed over Hampton Avenue J walking as he returned to the radio station after having lunch at the bar on the other side.

    He would wave to me and yelled "thanks!".

    That happened over a dozen times as we both had the same schedules. Ha Ha!
