My COTW is the Fishhook and Mussentuchit's transfer caboose. I got a good price on an old Mantua Bobber and added some detail and a paint job plus some metal wheels. Now the rear end crew has a place to ride on the Mussentuchit transfer.

It;s interesting comparing this bobber to the Bachmann one I have. While they are similar cars there are quite a few detail differences including window placement. I know Bachmann's is based on a Reading car, but I wonder whose Tyco's was based on? It's definitely not from PRR, which was the other big Philadelphia railroad.
