    Hi, New member here, just made the switch from O scale. I built this caboose to go with my FC&G SW9. I will be modeling this shortline railroad.

    Definately sparse on the inside, but it looks great.

    Nice work!

    Being a train order collector, I have a few pieces of FC&G amongst my accumulations. But I know nothing about the operation, nor what equipment they even used. Seeing this caboose, obviously home built, has me thinking it must have been a very unique line.

    That is some fine work. Gorgeous detail, even on the inside.

    I bow in admiration!:cool:

    There is a lot sadly lacking in the personality of today's rolling stock. The caboose looks great. Thank you for putting up pictures.
