Its pretty east to do a run with 1 road name , and half of the run unlettered. If i did the offset wood caboose (MTH's CA-1) in MoPac, , which MP scheme would be most popular. Red with buzz saw? brown with buzz saw? Pre-buzz saw? Fee free to post a pic

if you are going to do the CA-1 it should be brown with the buzzsaw. That is correct for steam era. This might appeal to those who bought the recent Missouri Pacific steam offerings from Lionel so they can run freight with a caboose that is close to correct for Missouri Pacific. Below is a link to an ho brass model of a steam era MoPac caboose.

I would prefer another custom run of the Atlas Extended Vision caboose that was made 20 years ago. Those are very hard to find. My friend is restoring one of the T&P versions #13607. It would be awesome to have his caboose on my Mopac trains.
