The Atlas Trainman 20006760 HO Scale Cupola Caboose represents the RF&P (Richmond Fredericksburg & Potomac) #923. Note that the picture might show a different road number. The first all - steel cabooses for the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad were made in 1937 by the Magor Car Corporation in Clifton, N.J. Along with St. Louis Car Company and ACF, Magor built 350 cabooses with a similar design for the C&O from 1937 to 1949. Many of these cabooses stayed in service until the 1980s after rebuilding and modernization. Similar designs were also used for Pere Marquette, Missouri Pacific, and Chicago & Eastern Illinois. This caboose model features true scale dimensions with accurate details, weighted and detailed underframes, AccuMate® Knuckle Couplers, trucks with free - rolling metal wheels, and clear window inserts along with separately applied side railings.

Using this Atlas Trainman HO Scale cupola caboose is easy. Simply connect it to your train using the AccuMate® Knuckle Couplers. You can add it to your existing HO scale train set to make it more realistic. When handling the caboose, be gentle as it has delicate parts like the clear window inserts and separately applied side railings. Avoid dropping it or applying too much force. For maintenance, keep it in a dry place away from dust. You can use a soft, dry cloth to clean the caboose every now and then. If the wheels seem to be sticking, you can give them a light wipe to ensure they roll freely. This will help keep your caboose looking great and running smoothly for a long time.
