Dates:5/19/2001 - 5/20/2001
Album Info:When Frisco 1522 came to Tulsa. On it's farewell tour. I caught up with it, both days it was close. Unfortunately, it was very cloudy both days. And my little automatic Nikon didn't really care for cloudy days. Couldn't find film fast enough for it.

Description:  Good-bye 1522. Even though 1522 went to Sapulpa a couple more times that day. I was out of film, and headed home. Strange thing was. This was the very last picture I shot of any train, I have taken. At that moment, I retired my camera. I did however get a few shots of the derailment in Dawson in December of 2013.
