Thanks for the great information! Will be sure and visit the place. Also, it's good to know about the porters and the important part they played. You have a right to be proud of the Great work and contributions your ancestors gave!
The F7 in the video was actually built in Canada but was never built for the AT&SF Railroad, it originally belonged to the Canadian National Railroad, then it was handed over to VIA Rail along with the other equipment part of the CN passenger fleet, then the locomotive was donated to the museum when it was originally in Dallas, it was repainted in the war bonnet livery the Santa Fe Railroad used.
Frisco sure has changed! I grew up in McKinney in the 60's and 70's and moved away from Texas. Mom stayed there until she passed in 2023. I went back home for visits. Frisco was a 1 light town. 1 cop for days and 1 for nights. Now it looks like Dallas moved in . I miss the little town that was Frisco.
Yes, I moved to Frisco in 2006 and back then you could drive 70 mph from Denton to McKinney on Hwy 380 most of the way. Now it’s bumper to bumper traffic for 90% of the drive!
