Bob Peare, "Traincraft", did a kit of an NYC "Riders Car", that was 41 feet long, and ran on passenger trucks. NYC Car #2715 is in drawing, and is described as of heavier than usual caboose construction. It looks like a drovers's caboose, no cupola, but has 5 windows one side, only 2 on other. It was a WWll creation since all coaches were required in pass. service, and all of several were still in service in 1951.
