This Tyco/Mantua caboose has a cast metal chassis. Does anyone else have other roadnames that have a cast metal chassis? If so - post your photo under this topic. This caboose also has metal ladders on each end and the handrails are metal also on the end of caboose. The brake wheel post and wheel is plastic. It is equipped with screw on trucks also.

I've had at least one that was red with no lettering, too. Came in a kit box from the mid-60s.
