I have just aquired these real train parts. I reconize the rails from a caboose, The brake wheel has a vertical shaft so I don't think it came from a caboose. The steps ( 2 sets back to back ) hard to say what they came from.

I'm just starting my train room aprox 25' x 25' and I would like to make a caboose wall section using these parts. I'd like it to look like a back of a caboose.

I'm asking for ideas and thoughts for this project.

Thanks,

Doug

How did you make out with the parts?

Well, you know the old saying about, The best laid plans !. All the parts are still in the attic over the garage. The space where I was going to build the caboose end got over ruled by this 3 layer Marx layout I made. My wife won't let me expand into the family room. Guess I'll have to find a new home for the caboose parts.

You can always park your car outside, and use the garage.

I am glad to see that you are back. The site administrator had problems awhile back. I contacted him, and he re-opened the site. I am the person with the 10,000 piece Pitney Bowes Museum 1/48 scale factory...talk about finding a place to show it. lol
