Looking for Info on WM caboose paint scheme
Posted by Anonymous on Friday, August 1, 2003 9:51 AM
Does anybody have or know where I can view color photos of a Western Maryland caboose in the circus paint scheme? I am mainly interested in the color of the ladder, platform railing, brake wheel, and grab-ons.

I already tried http://www.rr-fallenflags.org/ but there is only one photo of a circus paint scheme Western Maryland caboose. My other Internet searches turned up mainly Chessie era paint schemes.

I have the Roundhouse kit for this caboose but some of these parts are unpainted so I am trying to get an idea of what I color I should use.

The best place I have found for pictures of WM equipment is the WM historical society's annual calendar.  It is probably one of best calendars out there as they often have several extra pages with photos.

And seeing "Anonymous"  instead of a moniker I doubt if he/she is still a member.  Whistling
