Keeping with cabooses, my Roundhouse SSW caboose that came with my 4-4-2 and 5 coach set! All the coaches and this caboose have a fuse box! So we're going to be adding lights in the future!

CLOSE only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades! 
Sorry, I just wanted to say that! . Seriously tho, since Seaboard Air Line and Atlantic Coast Line merged to form Seaboard Coast Line (that's redundant if you ask me!), yeah I'd say you we're close too!

And that was an excellent choice of reporting marks, since SAL ran through peanut country...
...or just appeand a "T" to them, and you've got the full ingredient list ;)

Well, I should add my COTW for this week before its over!? 

Most of them, are 1961 Varney models, none that seen without trucks came came with any, as seen, only trucks that came were those with them! Cost? $8.75!
Then, I got these:

I got all the trucks and wheels for these, but they were shipped in a zip lock bag, cost? $15.50!
Once came to me locally, the second one, cost includes shipping!

Ken, That almost looks like it wouldn't be difficult to scratchbuild.....I wonder what type of "dropping" mechanisum it has to do that or is it a simple valve you turn open just slightly for it to soak the cleaning pad?
