Bob and Mark,

There is an image gallery of  SL-SF Passenger Trains on the Classic Trains website  and it contains this image of the Frisco Loco and what appears to be a mixed consist of heavyweights

The Frisco was fully dieselized by 1951, going out with a wimper on February 29 as light Mikado 4018 returned to Birmingham on a local freight.  Some steam locomotives were held in reserve until 1953 due to the Korean war, when they were either scrapped, sold or donated.

Meteor aside, the remainder of Frisco heavyweight passenger cars were Pullman Green.
