Appropriate UP Cabooses
Posted by oldline1 on Saturday, June 29, 2019 12:53 AM

Hey all you UP experts! I have an FEF-1 and FEF-2. I'd like to have an appropriate caboose for them in the 1946-1955 era. Which class would be right?

Thanks,

oldline1

A little light reading...

It would appear that HO scale CA -3/ CA-4 were produced by Intermountain Centralia Car Shops, and Marklin- Trix. I guess ebay would be your best bet.

Cheers, the Bear.Smile
