Description
NOTE: Image is representative of the paint scheme only. See listing for the actual car number. Kansas City Southern had long been a fan of the bay window caboose concept, having rebuilt a number of single sheathed boxcars into cabooses beginning in 1940. In 1963 KCS went to International Car for this group of Phase 1 cars. Not to be confused with the later stainless steel cabooses, these cars were painted in the Deramus Red scheme. Note the prototype cars were delivered with rare Rockwell trucks – a style that is not mass produced in any scale. We are substituting roller bearing caboose trucks for this run.
