That caboose looks to be in pretty rough shape in the Kijiji photos. Good detective work. Sometime I'll try to satellite locate the caboose here in Kingston, still in use as a drive-in theatre ticket booth on McAdoo's Lane here in Kingston.<BR/><BR/>Eric (Ontario railfan who doesn't lift stuff off in-service units)Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11822288099043790296noreply@blogger.com
