Where Have All The Cabooses Gone?

Garden Railroading

Hi! I’m an old carknocker (carman) on the railroad. I love this site! I need some support. I have a video on YouTube called “Ol’ Roger & the Railroad Waltz”. It talks about how sad it is that the railroads have taken away all the cabooses and are using them for all sorts of unorthodox purposes. Check it out at the following link, join YouTube (so you can rate videos) and put some big numbers up for me on this song I wrote. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4ovliP9_tQ God Bless The Ol’ Carknocker! :slight_smile:

I saw a bay window on the way home yesterday behind a UP loco and two box cars. I was kind of suprised that they weren’t using F.R.E.D.

There are a few cabooses for sale on Evilbay right now.
