Easily the most recognizable and popular rail carof them all, the little red caboose is as much apart of our folklore as it is railroading. The wood“crummies” of the late 19th and early 20th Centuriesendured for decades. Even after steel caboosescame along, hundreds of these older cars stayedin service on railroads large and small. “Nonrevenue”cars may not have been a high priority forreplacement by management, but their care andupkeep was a matter of both pride and comfortfor the crews who used them.We’re sure you’ll take pride too in having one ofthese “woodside” cabooses bringing up themarkers on your railroad. Cars feature detailedilluminated interiors and marker lamps, cupolabrakeman figure, die-cast trucks and operatingcouplers.
