Posted by CraigMWiester on April 24, 2013  Nice article on the MRL in the latest "Trains", Mike! Thanks for that, and for all your good photos! Posted by Mike Danneman on April 24, 2013  Craig, Actually, the MRL article, which I haven’t seen yet in the latest Trains Magazine, is written and photographed by my brother Tom. Aside, thanks for the nice comment on my photography! Posted by Randy Murphy-NorthAmericanRails.com on April 25, 2013  Years ago while visiting the MRL, I saw a similar caboose. The copula was shaped in a similar manner but was more off-center. Was it from the same British Columbia Hydro Railway or was it a former CB&Q? Posted by Tom Starr on April 25, 2013  Now that's how a how a freight train should end!!! Long live the caboose..... Posted by Mike Danneman on April 25, 2013  Randy, The caboose you saw was most likely No. 1002, indeed a former CB&Q waycar built by the road’s own Havelock shops near Lincoln, Nebraska in 1959.
