In Parsons, KS, home of the Katy RR, there are some old old MP ballast hoppers. They don't move much. They're kinda green and have the MP eagle logo still on them. But suprisingly I haven't seen any M-K-T logos on the ol' Katy line. Frisco also once went through there but I don't think I've seen any Frisco logos on anything.

I saw a Frisco box back a few months ago, and did a double take. But what really made me jump, was an old Lehigh Valley gon in the same train. [:D][:D][:D]

Thers an ole Frisco steam loco & BN cab displayed there BEAUTIFUL sight[8D]

Yes, my dad says he was on a gang that helped put the engine in the park.

I know it well. At least it now has a roof over it. For many years it didn't. I would love to see that one back in steam. It is a good size 4 8 4. Frisco liked Baldwin, so guess who made that one.

Yes every now and then you do see a Frisco boxcar. I am kinda surprised when I do seeing that BN was sure quick to wipe out just about everything else that said Frisco as fast as they could. But I better not go there or the soap box will come out.
