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.

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.

I be in for any of what Texas Eagle77 mentions !!!  In fact, I be be in for two numbers of any issue.  Yes A CA would be great for steam. The Atlas extended Vision is IMO the best of that model on the market.  That custom run was before my entry back into trains and IS Incredibly scarce. I’ve seen on eBay only once.  Atlas did a MP bay window some 10 (?) years ago but is very cheesy - cheaply done.  MTH did a decent brown steel caboose 15ish years ago but is also Quite Scarce.
A Well Done MP and TP issue would surely be a good seller. Most everyone now has to run their consists sans caboose or use another road caboose - or paint and decal their own.
