Thanks Bear.  I did not realize it was all one piece from cabin to frame. Thanks for the measurements.   Sorry it took so long to get back with you. Been busy with work and kids

I’m not sure if you are aware that on the Bowser #54000 N5c caboose kit, the chassis and sides are moulded together, see here....
If you were to cut the sides off the floor the outside measurement of the cabin is 3.308” x 1.345”.
Cheers, the Bear.

has anyone created a caboose track cleaning car using the brass chasis rolling wheel track cleaner.  I was looking at a bowser n-5 caboose to set on top but do not know the dimensions.  Dont want to buy one if it will not fit on top.
