SLSF Caboose #7619 w/PRR E8A #5706         
Interesting panoramic photo of St Louis-San Francisco (Frisco) caboose #7619 along with PRR E8A #5706. No photographer was listed. Can anyone tell me what this location was in Sumiton, AL - was it a railroad museum?

Tom Beckett General I've been through Sumiton any number of times in a truck, even a car on my way to Atlanta, but never got off US 78. I had no idea this was here. Next time-if we ever get back to travelling-I'll have to do some investigating. To my knowledge, there is no museum there, and I have never seen a sign for one, either on US 78, the old road, or I 22, the new road opened now 10 or 12 years. I've been running that road on a semi regular basis for 25 years; I think I would have seen something by now. The Frisco caboose is entirely appropriate, as their line to Birmingham came through here, and is now BNSF. The PRR E unit?? That's a poser!! 1/26/2021 4:37:43 AM
