    I am the proud owner of a 1927 Frisco Caboose. It is really in excellent condition, inside and out. I'm ready to start the restoration process. I don't want to turn it into a bed & breakfast, but rather an original restoration as much as possible. This is a daunting task, and I don't know where to start. I would love to at least see pictures of what it would have looked like when it was built. I would appreciate any suggesstions or resource information.
    Thanks,
    Kim

    Do you know what it's number is? Can you post a photo of it?

    That would help.

    Here's an example of work done by a group that restored D&RGW caboose, #0579.

    To be certain, it's not Frisco, but many of the techniques could be useful to you.
