    I am continuing to thin out my bins of rolling stock in hopes of getting down to only two storage tubs taking up room in the house.

    I found these two caboose models. I am not sure if they are prototypical, but let me know (message me) if you would like one of them. Can anyone speak to these?
    ----------
    The first is an Atlas Trainman model. They released two road numbers or someone scratched the 6 into a 5 on this model. Not sure if I am familiar with anything like this in the real world, but maybe was a stand-in for the NEO cabooses:

    The model is not weathered, other than it appears I painted the trucks and wheels. It has Kadee #5 couplers

    ------

    The second is an Athearn blue box bay window caboose that someone painted and decaled rather nicely. I am sure that I bought this from eBay...maybe from one of you all. It has metal wheels and Kadee couplers as well.

    Not sure about this one either. Maybe for an excursion line or museum? Stand in for a wood transfer caboose? Let me know your thoughts.

    -----

    Anyhow, if you would like either, PM me and I will send for the cost of shipping (USPS).

    Edit: I do have the original boxes.
