Inside a Caboose


It is sad that we no longer use nor see the caboose on our railroads. The freights seem unfinished without them.

  1. Hi Dusty, Great shot it works really well in mono. I bet this old caboose could tell a few stories.

  2. You know, I've never seen the inside of a caboose before...really. Never even gave it much thought. I'll never look at them again without thinking of it now! Thanks...

  3. Another memory jerker...all the trains of my childhood had cabooses! I agree, and I've thought many times a train without a caboose is like a dog without a tail.

    Very cool B&W!

  4. Hi, great picture, I love the stove, could come in handy in the near future, than we can collect wood to cook a meal instead of with gass. Cheers from Marcel

  6. Very cool shot. I know there are a few enthusiasts who buy and renovate these old cabooses and some even use them as weekend getaways. I know of a person who has one on their property and uses is as a "guest cottage"...very cool!
