Like yesterday’s, this menu doesn’t have an actual menu printed on the inside, though there are some filagree lines printed in red for trim. Also like yesterday’s, this menu has the “Frisco Faster Freight” logo on the back, dating it to 1945 plus or minus a few years.

The front cover photo of a steam-powered passenger train in a station at night claims to show “a bit of the Ozarks.” This is probably in Springfield, Missouri, which is where Frisco’s two main lines between Kansas City-Memphis-Birmingham and St. Louis-Dallas-Oklahoma City crossed. Springfield also calls itsef “the Queen City of the Ozarks.”
Unlike yesterday’s menu, this one doesn’t have a Frisco route map on the back cover. Other than the Frisco Faster Freight logo, the back is blank.
