[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by kog1027</i> <br /><br />For the first 11 years of my life it was 4 unit sets of Frisco Red & White GP-7's on the Ardmore - Arkinda sub-division ( Now the Kiamichi RR. ) in Durant, Oklahoma. <br /> <br />That was 30+ years ago, I still miss the sights and sounds of the Frisco. <br /> <br />Mark Gosdin <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Hi Mark [:)] <br /> <br />I too grew up along the Frisco near a small Missouri town called, Bois D' Arc. As a VERY small child I bearly remember seeing Frisco passenger trains and riding a few. Unfortunately I was not into photography them and never snapped any shots of my own of Frisco equipment. Warning--DON'T LET THAT HAPPEN TO YOU, TAKE PHOTOS NOW WHILE YOU CAN. <br /> <br />Like Mark I always thought Frisco's last color scheme was red and white. When the engines were new they definately looked red. Only after Frisco was gone did I even learn that Frisco's official color scheme was Mandarin Orange and White. The engines only looked orange when they were faded. <br /> <br />Frisco may be gone, but it is not forgotten. <br />
