There's one on Epay right now, look up Burlington Northern caboose, it's only 511.00 bucks right now! It's at a Mcdonald's in Spokane, WA. It even comes with the track and Mcdonald's art on it 'cause it was used for the "Birthday Club" car. It says it's an ex-GN, but no # given. Just haul it all away! :cool:

I do! I do!!
My wife would skin me alive.. She thinks the switchstand is overkill crazy.. A caboose would get me tarred and feathered..

It might even get you a trip to divorce court.

Yes thats true.

But a least when the wife gets the house you will have a place to live.

Unlike most of you, don't show this post to my wife! She wants one as bad as I want a new Jeep! If it were in IL. Caboose is cheap, but hauling it here by flatbed would be more expensive than my hobby budget could handle:omg: . First thing I would do is return it into proper GN paint.

Vermillion red and a large Rocky on the flanks...
I cannot see the link--danged firewalls! So, I'm guessing it's an Int'l Std. Cupola caboose, or EV caboose.. Both got delivered in red with a 36" (?) Rocky on them.

It's an EV. I would love to have one! Wonder what the shipping to Sweden would be.....?

Price? Off the scale comes to mind..
Only a ship could transport it, and it'll take a few months..

Yup, at least off my scale. :) Would probably be cheaper to make a replica...!?
