Re: Pacific Coast Railroad

Hi Pat,

The Caboose #303 that we have came to us in a round about way from Guatimala. It had sat for years in Colorado as part of the Sundown & Southern collection. After it was sold at auction it sat for about five more years near Virgina City, Nevada. While it was in Nevada it received new siding, but that was about it. It then was bought by us for the P.C.R.R.

So far, I have replaced the end sills, installed new steps and did the C.O.T.S. work on the brakes. It still has a flat wheel,though, and I would really like to get a replacement wheel set from Guatimala along with anything else that might be available. But that is unlikely to happen.

On the P.C.R.R. Blog site there are some pictures of it.
