    This is one of the wood side, steel cupola local service cabooses. Unfortunately the end doors (bar gate) and windows (steel mesh) have been fortified which distract from the original appearance. These items were in an attempt to reduce vandalism.

    Also on display in the park, just to the north of caboose SLSF 1183, is a Frisco track car speeder.

    This caboose is located in the city's Falin Park on the south side of US Highway 64. The caboose sits on a north / south axis in the northeast corner of the park. The car is east of the intersections of US 64 Highway (a/k/a Missouri Highway 17), East 5th Street, East 7th Street and Park Street.

    Please see http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&sou...id=BuBS3rtgvS7_j3CLOivhVg&cbp=11,165.89,,0,-5

    The approximate address is 700 Park Street.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks!
