You overlooked how friendly BNSF has been to qualified steam operators.
I've never heard of that. Which operators?
How about AT&SF #3751, SP&S 700, Milwaukee Road #261, and of course SP 4449.
Not quite so friendly to Frisco 1522, alas.

In fact the UP was VERY friendly to Frisco 1522, on more than one occasion. However, the group in charge of 1522 was getting "long in the tooth", and the engine was coming do for some major maintenance and inspections, so they all simply decided to call it quits, and folded their tent. Thus, the 1522 was returned to the museum in St Louis.
