Steam & Excursion > Frisco 1522 at 1994 NRHS ConventionDate: 01/14/23 18:44 Frisco 1522 at 1994 NRHS Convention Author: srman Since Frisco1522 is about to leave Trainorders I wanted to post these five images that I got during the 1994 NRHS Convention held that year in Atlanta. I have a lot of video of these runs and hope to share soon however it won't be before Frisco1522 leaves. First image on the former CofG at Hapeville, Hampton and Milner Ga. all on June 23,1994. I'll follow with two more.

I remember with this image several of us fans had gathered at this spot when a local drove up to us and gave us a good cussing as we were creating a traffic jam that he didn't appreciate. Last image was the 26th as it along with the N&W 611, Southern GP59 4610 and Operation Lifesaver GP60 7140 arrived at Rome Ga. Thanks for taking a look back to the 1522 at the 1994 convention.

In my old age the memory is terrible. BTW I am so glad you are still on the board, and have really enjoyed the many steam photos that you have recently posted.

At Springfield, I joined my friends who had been chasing for the trip to Memphis. After spending the day in Memphis, I flew back to Arizona. I thought about going further, but was almost out of vacation time, so Memphis had to be the end of the trip for me.

The Thayer div was a good place to chase. I ran from West Plains to Jonesboro on that leg. Little hill and dale and some spirited running on the flatland.
