Western Railroad Discussion > Check out my rear end.Date: 08/31/19 11:56 Check out my rear end. Author: msns2557 All recently taken within the last year.
Shot 1. UP uses this ex DRGW Caboose on their Colorado Springs local. Colors starting to fade a little on it, but I like it none the less. 02-13-2019 Colo Sprngs Colo Shot 2. This was down on the SL&RG in Alamosa Colo back on May 4 2019. RPCX 1043 Shot 3. And over in Pueblo Colo at the Pblo Rwy Museum is this ex ATSF Caboose, the ATSF 2278R. Always liked cabooses, they were just as varied as locomotives were. Sure do miss waving at the guys in the caboose. Take care all, Kristie    Date: 08/31/19 12:19 Re: Check out my rear end. Author: Lackawanna484 There are several Department of Defense DODX Cabooses in use. And a caboose for high and wide power unit shipments out of northeastern PA.

I, too, have been a caboose fan for a long time: styles, colors, markings, etc. The former ATSF caboose even has weathered plywood in the windows. That would be a different modeling task.

Are there sometimes armed guards inside to escort the load? Date: 09/01/19 19:42 Re: Check out my rear end. Author: PHall djm448 Wrote:
