Texas Special caboose 277

My original Texas Special HO train set caboose did not survive childhood so I decided to make a replica using an Athearn Blue Box caboose and Microscale set 87-455 decals.

      Cool!

      I'm sure there are other "Baby Boomers" who operated the Lionel Texas Special HO trains. They offered both a freight and passenger set. In 1961 I didn't compare them to the prototype. They still provided many hours of enjoyment. Though I no longer have my HO models your caboose brings back a train load of memories.

      Thanks!

      That train set sparked a life long interest in model railroading.
