Re: 223 Fire--What was Short Caboose #?

The sad news is that the Caboose 0573 is just a jumble of truss rods and scorched brake piping, as is Boxcar 3576 including the metasl murphy roof.
Gondola 1051 which was in very poor ciondition was damaged on one end.
The real sad nmote is that had the Ogden city Fire Department Command would have cared to protect the west side of the building these cars would have likely been saved, But Ogden City Utah has a Mayor that wants the Museum Closewd and turned into a Commercial Stip Mall---so this tells the story, and he was conviently out of Town in Europe checking out Gondola Tramways for Commuters in Ogden (a whole other story)
The 223 was fortunate to have had all of the appliances removed a long time ago, so there is no damage to the appliances.
The damage to the boiler and running gear have yet to inspected as the building and adjacent ground is still coinsidered a Fire and Crime Scene.
The old tender tank realloy didn't get scorched, and the Tender Frane and trucks were in the Restoration Shop as was the New Cab.
