A 20 minute trip through the Ozarks countryside. Halfway through, 2 train robbers, Alfie and Ralphie Bolin, stop the train to rob it. Then return to town on an uphill grade.
The Frisco Silver Dollar Line (FSDL) was started in 1962 and had one locomotive pulling the trains: a 1920 2-4-0 built by Davenport Locomotive Works numbered 76. Currently, it has been retired and is on display by the roundhouse. It has been unofficially numbered 9. In 1969, 3 European switch engines came to SDC: a 1934 0-4-0T built by Orenstein and Koppel (O&K) in Hamburg, Germany numbered 43, a 1938 0-4-0T built by O&K in Hamburg, Germany numbered 13, and a 1940 0-4-0T built by Kolben-Danek in Czechoslovakia numbered 76. A fifth engine, number 7, was brought to SDC and dismantled for a train wreck scene as the "Wreck of 82". Number 7 is number 43's sister engine. The current engineers are: Richard Finn, Noah Bentley, Andrew Dean, Dominique Hogue, and Chris Brummett. In 2010, Noah added Silver bands to the locomotives and a fresh coat of paint. 43 and 76 received silver numbers on their headlamps. The Southern 3 Chime on 76 received a red coat of polish. In early 2010, they received new throttles. They even got new engineer seats. In August 2010, 76 received a new exhaust nozzle (which made her louder). In December 2010, 13 received a new whistle, a Santa Fe 6 Chime. She also received an exhaust nozzle. In 2011, new painting details where added to the engines. The Southern 3 Chime, SP 6 Chime, and Santa Fe 6 Chime were polished silver. In June 2011, 13 received a straight stack. They also started building new train cars. In 2012, 76's diamond stack was removed and received a new whistle, the D&RGW 5 Chime. In 2013, the FSDL started the Americanization process. New paint details were added and the tanks were painted black along with gold bands. They even made drawings of tenders which are to be approved for construction.
