Texas State Railroad Railfan Weekend - March 1-2, 1997

Gulf Coast Chapter, National Railway Historical Society, Inc. has sponsored
five exciting Railfan Weekends at the Texas State Railroad State Historical Park.

The photos below were taken by Walt Sklenar.  The files are large and may take time to load into your browser.

More photos of the 1997 event will be posted in the future.

For the '97 event, TSRR No. 300 was lettered as AT&SF 2570, and the passenger cars were lettered for Santa Fe as well.
However, even in black & white, No. 300's brilliant red paint is a giveaway that this is not a Santa Fe engine!
