I saw a photo of this one in Morning Sun’s new caboose portfolio book. This is one of those cabooses that is different from most and that makes it more interesting to me. Short lines have some really unique cabs. This was was numbered 2853. I built 2 and as of yet I have not been able to find out if there was more than one on the roster. This model still lacks ladders and side grabs that will be installed after the rivets are applied. I did not enjoy making the steps but I like the way they look .

These comments sent me to grab "Mixed Train Daily", and "The Railroad Caboose", by Knapke, as both books have a number of photos of "different" cabooses, side doors, combines, and drovers, many on the short lines of the South.  I would like one of each of those, certainly the coach caboose of the Waco, Beaumont, Trinity, and Sabine RR.  Every now and then l page through to drool over the beese, and through the MOPAC and Burlington caboose books.
