Bruce. The roster of your railroad continues to grow. All very nice equipment.
Anyway, thanks. I think I have too many cabooses, since I typically only run two trains a day. This is #5, though #4 is typically used for my logging extra - pulled by the live steam Shay. I usually just run it around the loop. 
No such thing as too many cabooses 
If not behind a train, they look good parked on a siding

Ralph Berg said:Well, that's true. I usually put the one scheduled to go with the train as the last caboose on the caboose siding; that way there's some work to do to get ready to run the train. ;)

If the crew doesn’t rotate cabooses when placed on the siding, it’s a good method to keep them all in service and used… first in, first out…
Well Bruce if yer complaining about too much cabbeese (or boxcars, flats, gons, etc.) sent them to me to do permanent interchange service on my future empire.

Bruce Chandler said:And just what the hell where you doing wondering around in JoAnn's Fabric's and don't tell me you were just following Jean around..............;)
Thanks, guys. The roof is covered with some stuff I got from JoAnn's Fabrics. I THINK it's called PatternEase or something like that. It's very thin and gives a nice texture.
And I agree with Ralph, you can’t have too many cabooses. Never know when the revenue stream might expand and a couple extra way freights will be needed to handle the traffic…
Ron Spencer said:VERY approximate would be 5 pounds...but I do not have an accurate scale for this. All that acrylic, metal trucks, metal wheels...some brass...it adds up. ;)

Bruce was looking for upholstery fabric for his new passenger car. What else.
It takes a real man to admit they were in JoAnne’s Fabrics 
The women look at me funny enough already when I’m in Michael’s :lol:
