Frisco was fairly popular at the Great American Train Show in Houston, however, about a month later, we attended another show in Tulsa, Oklahoma. At the time, I only had a drawing of a red and white Frisco GP38-2 and the 1522 steam locomotive.
In Tulsa, the 1522 was especially popular. At the show, people asked if I had drawn the red and gold e-units for the Meteor passenger train.
When I returned home to the studio, more Frisco engines were on my drawing board. I drew red and gold e-units Sea Biscuit, Messenger and Big Red, all named after famous race horses. Every time I see many of the Frisco engines that I have drawn, I think of that early Great American Train Show that I attended in Tulsa and the many fans of Frisco that attended it.
