Steamer,

David I do not know what it it about that particular Green on Green colored 817 Caboose, either there were an incredible number of them made, or the kids in those era's played incredibly hard with those particular colored Lionel Cabooses. At the Train Shows I have seen more of those Green on Green colored Cabooses that were played with incredibly hard, and need restored, than any of the other colored 817's.

I think the next old beat up 817 I pick up, is going to get restored in a nice High Gloss Silver with Black Trim. I got this idea when I stripped the last 817 to bare metal and had it running in the Consist, prior to painting it Black and Gold. Maybe it's time I added a nice shinny Silver 817 to the Consist.

PCRR/Dave
