Re: NNG - Colorado Midland Caboose

Thanks Bruce. Noticing quite a few similarities in construction. One thing I just noticed is this caboose has a dual height coupler which is the first time I have seen one on a caboose. As the Gales Creek & Wilson River was primarily a logging railroad this makes some sense. I know of many logging locomotives with dual height couplers but not cabooses.
