Will certainly be glad to see the restoration when its done. When I was just a little guy back in the late 1950's, we took a vacation trip through Colorado and stopped in Silver Plume. The caboose was on "display" back then, too, but was just resting on a few ties laid lengthwise to the car. I have an old 8mm movie that my Mom shot of me up in the cupola that day we visited. That climbing around on that caboose might be what started my lifelong interest in narrow gauge!
