On Saturday, September 25, 2010, the Gateway Division
NMRA and the St. Louis Chapter of the National Railway
Historical Society held the third annual get-together picnic
of these two fine train groups at the Wabash, Frisco, and
Pacific Railroad, in Glencoe, Missouri. The WF&P RR runs
12-inch gauge small scale steam and diesel trains alongside
the Meramec River. It provides a 2-mile roundtrip. As they
say, these are the only scheduled steam passenger trains in
Missouri.
The weather was great, the steam and diesel locomotive
rides were many, the scenery along the Meramec River was
beautiful and some new train friends were made. Best of all,
people had fun. Here are some photos from the event. Click
