    I was at a Open House last night of the Kanawha Valley Railroad Association and saw that very caboose (in HO scale) on the end of a CSX coal train. A beautiful model, very highly detailed.

    In other recent photos I have found of it, it seems to end up on work trains. :rolleyes:

    Caught this former B&O caboose yesterday evening on a BBQ Dinner Train we rode at the South Carolina Railroad Museum. Photo taken at Rion, SC, current end of the line and once the site of a large granite quarry.

    That anniversary caboose should be preserved, somewhere, somehow.

    Another N scale manufacturer will be releasing their version of the 904000 very soon.

    That's a good looking caboose. I do think (just based on local observation) that they do get the most use on work trains.
