This was a recent Ebay purchase,and I posted the Ebay pics, now I can't find what thread that was in. Argh! Anyway, here's a pic of it, and other items in the lot I got. The ATSF caboose is all-metal, I was surprised. NO maker listed on the smooth bottom. Here's the pics, if anyone can ID this caboose, let me know -





Below are some bobber 'boose shells in the lot. Going to go into my Getaway and Cabooze railroad tourist train -


Below, my M*A*S*H* caboose and truck -


The reason I bid on the lot, this Cox flying models trailer -



And to top off the morning, a Black Label boxcar -


Pretty good haul, I like the stuff I got.

Jerry,
Those caboose shells are for the Athearn work cabooses,notice there's only a roof overhang on one end.
Nice find with the Cox trailer,a friend of mine gave me his old HO stuff,and inside the big box was a Cox flatcar with the same trailer,mint in the box.
