caboose question - jim currie - 12-11-2025

was packing things up as in couple of weeks were going to have a project in garage so i was putting away rolling stack and engines out of harm's way and found I have 22 cabooses of 12 different roads and was wondering how many you have.

According to my inventory list I have 66 cabooses. I know the number is lower because I have recently sold several but have not updated the inventory list. I have 13 different roadnames.

I have seven built and two more in half-built/kit form. Almost everything is a craftsman kit so it will take some time to catch up to the others.

I did a fast count of cabooses on the shelf and layout and there were 59. I have 12 kits yet to build and I am putting markers and interior lights in them so they will not be on line for a while. There are at least 12 different road names.  Having actually lived in a caboose for almost 10 years, (saved driving 150 miles a day)my trains all use cabooses. Wink

RE: caboose question - hillyard999 - 12-15-2025

I have 3 that I run regularly.
another 2 that are occasional.
2 in for repair (project to-do list)
2 work in progress requiring painting (project to-do list).
2 that won't be used probably ever again.
