Caboose SP #1 - Commonly thought to be a Transfer Caboose, this was in fact the Prototype for a series of Road Cabooses. SP's only example of Class C-50-10, it was built from damaged C-50-3 #4401 in 1980, and painted to match 'Orange Bird' SD40 7342 . The design was based on the Missouri Pacific's 13700 class, known as a 'Short Body' bay window caboose. Frame length remained the same, but the body was shortened and it has no roof overhang. It was used to try out various paint schemes.
