Transfer Cabooses (Cabeese)


I've long been a fan of transfer cabooses. Somewhere in my files I have LOTS of pics of this big variety of cars. And I have a number of them as well as kits for them, as well as flat cars, and other cars that might be kit-bashed into them.


So it was with an admiring eye that I spotted this one at a train show this weekend. Had to have it, whether it was prototypical or not.

I have been looking for a transfer caboose kit for a while. Are there any Mfg's out there still making these kits? If so, who? Thanks for your time....TONY, aka breezy8
 
I like them too. First picture is a brass N&W unit that I painted for my road. Second picture is one I kitbashed from a flatcar and an old caboose body I had laying around.

I've got a whole box full of various cars, parts etc from which I collected and put aside,.... eventually planned (plan) on kitbashing some transfer cabeese.
 
Here's on a scratchbuilt a little while back using mostly parts out of the junk box.
