Does anyone know who made this track cleaner tanker caboose in this picture? (brown caboose in top of pic) Is it still made?

I had one years ago and remember that it worked and looked pretty good.

That's the one! Thanks. I doubt that it's still made. Maybe I'll luck out and find a NOS one some where. I'd rather not buy a used one like in this auction.

The one I used to have was like a box car brown. Don't remember the road name. It looked good with a crane car and some MOW equipment.

Jeffrey-Thanks for those links. I like the Canadian road names. Those are a possibility. I liked that LL because you filled the tank with cleaning fluid and pushed a button on top to moisten the pad.
