First of all, here's a picture of those who attended the annual Railspot luncheon at Love and War In Texas Restaurant that afternoon at 1 p.m. I left the lens hood on while taking the flash picture, that's why there's a black smudge lower center.

Number 19 steam engine, I believe it's a Consolidation. This is displayed in another part of the city of Frisco next to the BNSF tracks. It's not part of the Museum of the American Railroad. Frisco #19 is in reality former Lake Superior & Ishpeming #19, one of several ex-LS&I steamers that found an extended career with the Grand Canyon Railroad. #19 later was retired and displayed by GCRR at their Williams, Arizona station. It was subsequently acquired by the Frisco Heritage group for display at their "townsite." The eventual plan is to emplace the Texas & Pacific boxcar and the "Armour" PCX reefer between #19 and the SLSF caboose. ~ George Jenista, Trinity Valley RR group, Ft. Worth, Texas 76115
SLSF 1144 wooden caboose.
