Details:
Whether called a cabin, crummy, waycar or hack, the Atlas N Scale Extended-Vision Caboose is based on steel cars that brought up the markers on trains coast to coast beginning in the 1950s. On these cars the cupola featured an extended width extending past the sides of the car body allowing crewmembers to see around the taller cars in operation in the postwar era. Each Extended-Vision Caboose features an injection-molded body, fine end railings, applied details as appropriate, accurate decoration, roller-bearing caboose trucks, and AccuMate(R) magnetic knuckle couplers. Extended-Vision Cabooses were common sights on railroads from the 1950s to the 1980s and some are still in use for long switching and backup moves in 2020. This Extended-Vision Caboose is one of many Atlas and Trainman N Scale cabooses.
