I did a quick google search and didn’t see anything, did the Milwaukee Road have a caboose with a bicentennial paint scheme?
I think it would be cool to have a caboose that matches my bicentennial SD40-2, but before I just freelance one I figured I would check and see if there was one in real life that I could model…
Thanks!

No, the Milwaukee Road did not have a Bicentennial caboose.
So, next question… cupola or bay window? Obviously a bicentennial caboose is going to be fantasy, but if it was done what type would it likely have been? I’ve seen pictures of both in MILW paint, but from what I’ve been able to find it appears that the bay windows would have been the most common in the 70’s+, is that right?
Thanks!
This is about as close as you will get. MILW rostered a lot of bay window cabooses, but since it is fantasy, it really comes down to what do you like better?
Thanks for that picture!
This is fantasy, so I certainly won’t be counting any rivets, but I would still like to inject as much plausibility into this fantasy as I can…
Came across a good deal on an MTH caboose in Milwaukee paint…
