Title:  SLSF 4-8-2 #1526 - St Louis-San Francisco (Frisco)
Description:  I had one small part in helping to tell the story of Frisco #1526 when I was contacted by Taylor Larson (right), one of the curators at the Museum of the Great Plains, for permission to post a photo of 1526 after a derailment. The placard below the photo denotes that the photo was originally taken by C.C. Grayson and is now part of my collection. I feel very honored to help tell a small piece of the locomotive's story.
