This is what you will do

We will line up our cabooses for you to take a look at if you have time. Our fleet represents cabooses built from the 1920's through the 1950's. Take this chance to see another example of railroads past. We also place a caboose or two at different locations so that you can get a chance to take a look inside while waiting your turn at some of the activities.  Take the opportunity to view a piece of railroad history!

This is what you will learn

You will get to see the various ways that railroad crews used a caboose. You will see how they changed, using modern (for their time) technologies. You will be able to compare and contrast how these special purpose railroad cars were built and outfitted in their day.
