Actually, Craig, the passenger view is an artifact from the AT&SF warbaby caboose, which had the benches. I liked the view so much, I left it in. It is prototypical for the time period too, as this was where the brakemen would sometimes stand in certain circumstances.

There is a way to make it smoke with an .engine file, but I'm not very adept at it. Maybe we can talk Chuck into whipping one up for it. Chuck, do you have one for the Qunicy waycar yet?

Don't forget the CB&Q Way Car. They were on the roster till the mid-1950's. They were reputed to be rough riders, I suppose due to the coils springs.


No, I wont forget the Burlington way car. it's my favorite of all of them.

What is that engine you have pulling that train?

Love your cabooses, by the way!

Hi Herb,

The engine is a beta model of a T&NO 2-8-0 not yet available, by George R Mathews II, aka wctrr.

Happy you're happy with the cabooses (and waycars). :D
