Frisco 1522
Title:  Frisco 1522
Description:  Baldwin 4-8-2 Mountain, built in 1926 for the Frisco. Engine was restored between 1985 and 1988 and operated in excursion service until September 2002. One of the reasons I came out to the MOT was to spend a little time with 1522, being that this is 10 years to the month to the last time it had a a fire in the box. It sure is hard to believe that in a short 4 years, she will have been idle in her second retirement for the same amount of time that she was active in her second career.

UP Locomotives
Title:  UP Locomotives
Description:  The CNW and DRGW Heritage Locomotives sit at Atchison after bringing UP Train MKCAT 20 up this afternoon and will take the MATKC 21 back tomorrow.

Neither of these engines are far from where their representative roads ran. CNW once had trackage rights through here, and DRGW had trackage rights into Kansas City, just 50 miles down the track.
