Hi Snoq pass RR
How about a 1/2 caboose[:D]
http://www.trains.com/Content/Dynamic/Articles/000/000/006/584bggix.asp
that in conjunction with the current Garden Railways Mag will get a small backwoods caboose.[8D]
You where not specific in what Kind of caboose you wanted but hope you find this one of interest.
You might also find the Caboose construction class in the pull out plans forum usefull.
regards John
