    Caboose SLSF 1186

    Looking for information on the side-door cabooses that Frisco had in the later years.

    Several made it to BN. The specific point of interest is caboose SLSF 1186, which was in Paola, KS in 1978.

    How many?

    Where and when built?

    Thanks,

    Rick

    If you want to model one you will have to scratch build it.

    There were a lot of them around the turn of the last century but you could get killed getting on board by the side door, so the cabooses were outlawed on the Frisco may years ago.

    I do not think any of the made it to the BN merger.
