Pictures of the Caboose were taken about 7 years ago. The caboose has set at the refinery site in a salt rich environment for over 30 years, hence the rusted out body. Scrappers had cleaned up the site about 7 years ago and the caboose was on the list. More pictures below. The camera I was using at the time was not the best quality.
