My Office on Wheels
Author: edsaalig

Photo one shows a 1950s style UP caboose. Photo two shows a rare view of the inside of UP 25140 UP caboose. The photo was taken in the late 50s. I took the first photo, but I'm not sure about the second one. I believe it was taken by William Withuhn. My copy had no information on it.

Could be a toilet or a stove issue. Wonder what it is?

You aren't saying that your photo was taken in the 1950s, are you? Because with the ACI labels on them, I'd be inclined to dispute that.

Interesting, at any rate.

No, the first photo was taken in the early 70s, but the caboose was probably made in the 50s.
