Some time back I said I would post some picture's of my MDC RGS caboose's

first is from a kit.

this one came RTR ( changed couplers to KD )

I also have D&RGW still in the box I need to add some more shelf's .

this is not a caboose it's a J&S repaint with decal's added.

I have the yellow D&RG caboose, I was lucky to get it right before MDC went under.

Rumor has it that their is a new company has the G scale molds from MDC and is planning to reintroduce their product line, or at least a part of it, sometime this year.

We'll see. With no more LGB for the forseeable future, any new player in the field would be welcome.

 

   Have fun with your trains

I had all of them out the week before Christmas pulled by one GP-9 I wish i had taken more picture's.
