More Importantly can u help me identify the Railrod and class of this caboose
A google search under wood caboose turned up nothing
For those who want to know its off ridge road in winchester behind a housig develpment

I believe it is the old DT&I caboose for sale.

I would doubt that that one was built for the D T & I. They may have bought a few of
them,but looks like it was from a northeastern road;maybe Pennsy,B & M,New Haven,
or several others.
