Love is....

For those of you who do not know, I am getting married on October 17. The ceremony and reception are being held in Rolla, Missouri, Katy's (my fiancé not the M-K-T) hometown. Rolla is located on the old Frisco St. Louis-Springfield mainline.

Frisco 1501, a USRA light 4-8-2 sits in a city park in Rolla. The locomotive is under cover, and in generally good shape. Months ago, I offhandedly remarked that a wedding photo or two near the locomotive would be neat, and thought nothing more of it. Katy did some legwork, and secured permission from the City of Rolla to have access to the locomotive for photos.

That is love!
