Steam & Excursion > Frisco 1352 in MissouriDate: 02/22/21 18:45 Frisco 1352 in Missouri Author: zoohogger Traveling for work in either 1982 or 3 I happened upon the Intercontinental scrap yard. Is Riverside the town? 1352 was sitting close to the fence. I had no telephoto and the place was littered with UP gas turbines and other such oddities.
Wish I would have had a drone to record all that was there. Did one of you get there and take photos?

Now it’s sitting in the former C&IM single stall engine house in Taylorville, IL. The American Steam Railroad in Ohio owns 1352 but since they got Reading 2100 ol 1352 has just sat in Illinois forgotten.

I don't think it was the Cedar Rapids that the 261 group has http://www.trainweb.org/outsidetherails/SkytopLounges2016/ Edit: It looks like the car pictured is "Coffee Creek" http://trainweb.org/web_lurker/MILW/ Edited 1 time(s).

The former Lake Superior & Ispheming #20 in the distance was moved from Alamosa, CO, to a town in Texas in mid-October 2020.
