The December issue of CTT has a review of Ready Made Toys O-27 cabooses. A photo shows one decorated in Chicago & NorthWestern yellow and green, with sharp graphics including the slogan “Since 1948 Pulling T(ogether)”.
I realize these cabooses are not intended to be scale-detailed, but as a C&NW fan I want to let Walter know that the railroad has been “pulling together” a little bit longer than the date on the caboose. The C&NW traces its heritage back to the Galena & Chicago Union, the first railroad in Chicago. The G&CU was chartered in 1848, not 1948.[:)]
