This week we are sharing our C & O Cabooses. Some of these are Lionel, MTH and K-line. [:)][^]



















Can you tell who made which ones [?][:D][:D]

If you are seeing red X, it's becuase ShurtterFly is down for a while this morning.

The detail on the K-Lines is fantastic but I don't know if it is me, Mr. Klutz, the handrails seem to be EXTREMELY fragile. [B)]

The blue smoking one is pretty obviously K-line. I don't know about the others.

@ dougdagroump, the handrails are not a big problem. Though it's not suited for kids hands, they are quite flexible.. The one problem I have with my K-line caboose is that the couplers are fixed to the trucks. If you have 027 or s-0curves it will lift the trucks off the rails and the caboose will derail. I'll make the couplers swing by using a 3/8" chain connecting clip and then the problem is gone..

And, a picture combining trains with two of my other interests/hobbies. Can anyone tell me what the three objects in this picture have in common?

[spankybird]

Ben, there modern look was done by the same artist. I'll hold back on who it was.

You are correct, Tom.
Anyone else care to take a stab at who it might have been?

Well guys, the smoking blue one is K-line and yes the hand rail do look too high. The little blue one is Lionel, the red one is MTH. No guess on the yellow ones [?]
