Did it again, 5.00 € Caboose Kitbash
#1
Hello,

On the US-Convention in Rodgau, Hessen, Germany was a swapmeet and i found an old Roundhouse caboose kit, painted but unlettered and priced at 5.00 Euros. O.k. what can you do with it? Still having too few cabooses in my rolling stock, so i purchased it. At a first glance this my become a fine stand in caboose for D&RGW. Yes there are D&RGW cabeese ready available, but all of them are narrow gauge. Here am standard gauge minded and there is simply nothing for the steam aera available.

This was in the kit box and i added some addional and replacement parts also. There are 4 Intermountals wheelsets, 2 Kadee scale couplers and their appropiate boxes, 2 channels for the new side sills, a Herald King Decal Set for Rio Grande caboose, some small parts for brake equipment and some more.

I started with the cupola and enlarged the windows.
