For those who really want the ultimate train room:

caboose

Might be hard to move... I'm still trying to sway the wife we could have it in the back yard

Welcome Taifun
Nice caboose you could build a neat layout in there!!

Ken.

clarification

I am not saying this is mine. Only that I wish I could convince my wife that:

a) 50k is not a waste on this

and

b) that it could fit in our yard

Although he modified the daylights out of the interior, I think its still really cool to have as a rec room/train room.

I seem to remember a mrr club doing exactly that with an old bay window caboose somewhere...

That would be cool to have. I don't even have a place right now so kindof hard to put it somewhere.

Welcome to the page for starters!!

And ...What a deal!!!! that's beautiful inside...I'd live in it and turn my home into a layout room I missed a deal once in a club I use to belong to. In Altoona they were selling raffle tickets for a Conrail caboose. A club member owned a crane company and the caboose included delivery and set-up by him. I asked about getting tickets later on and they said they had an issue with the legal aspects of the raffle so they accepted an offer...I asked what it was and he said $3500!!! set up and everything!!!... I was bummed!!!
