    Thanks for the date; SLSF had an intermodal train (#33) that left their Lindenwood Yard at 11:00 am daily. We lived in Webster Groves and if I didn’t feel like waiting around for the Mopac to show up at Kirkwood I’d plant myself at McKnight/Rockhill Road on the Frisco and around 11:13 on the nose you’d see a headlight coming down the Frisco with several SD types and a Memphis train in tow. Also saw their Chrysler turn many times with MP15s running back to back. Loved the orange and white paint scheme on the WV cabooses.
