1910 Steam Locomotive
A 1910 Steam Locomotive complete with its tender and cow catcher is located adjacent to the Frisco Depot replica and the BNSF tracks that run through Frisco. Since Frisco derived its name from the St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad, it is only fitting that a train stands to honor that heritage. Number 19 stands over 15’ tall, 64’ long and weighs in at 185,000 pounds. The locomotive made its way to Frisco in 2004 and the restoration efforts started. Much progress has been made to restore #19 to look as it did for the Frisco Railroad when it rolled off the assembly line. While #19 may never move under its own power again, its whistle does blow, its bell rings, and the headlight points the way as a living part of Frisco’s history.
