Hello There!

My name is Randy and I am a Frisco Steam man! I have 4 books on Frisco Steam. It took me some time to find these, but I hunted them down! Here are all the necessary publishing facts you need to order/find the books. Good hunting!

Steam Locomotives of the Frisco Line
Written by Lloyd E. Stagner, copyright 1976
Published by Pruett Publishing Co., Boulder, Co.
ISBN 0-87108-097-4

Frisco Steam Finale 1946-1952
Written by Lloyd E. Stagner, copyright 1995
Published by South Platte Press, David City, NE
ISBN 0-942035-33-X

Frisco Power-Locomotives And Trains of the St. Louis-San Francisco Railway 1903-1953
Written by Joe G. Collias, copyright 1997
Published by The Frisco Railroad Museum
ISBN 0-931365-17-1

Rails Rivalry and Romance
Written by Donald D. Danwart, copyright 1982
Published by Sekan Printing Co. Fort Scott, KS
ISBN 0-9601568-3-6

All these can be found out there. The hardest are the Steam Locomotive of the Frisco Line by Stagner, and the Rails Romance and Rivalry. Best bet-Ebay, or train shows! You'll have to dig for those.

The Joe Collias book can be purchased through the Frisco Rail Museum, and the other Stagner book can be ordered through Barnes & Noble, or any major book distributor.

Never, ever let it be said that the Frisco Family doesn't stick together!

God Bless!

Frisco rules the rails...right Watash! :D

I suggest you get acquainted with FMIG Frisco Modelers Information Group for many leads to Frisco items. FMIG founder, Douglas J.Hughes, edited "Frisco Railroad Bibliography" which you can reach at http:// www.frisco.org/fmig/fmigbibl.htm. (http://www.frisco.org/fmig/fmigbibl.htm.) Try ebay under Frisco. Good hunting!
