Very nice Ralph.That 'boose looks much better (IMHO) with that style of cupola centered.

Thanks Catt. I don't understand why the folks at Tyco went to the effort of creating an N8-like caboose with the cupola off center. Oh well, it made it fun to bash!

Yup, and the CPR owned some similar ones, too:

At least they centered the cupola, although it looks as if they forgot the windows. Misngth
