This is an Atlas Trainman HO scale cupola caboose representing Metro North #1064 (model number 20006763). 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 Magor Car Corporation in Clifton, N.J. Along with St. Louis Car Company and ACF, Magor built 350 cabooses with a similar design, with the last ones in 1949. Many stayed in service until the 1980s due to rebuilding and modernization. Similar cabooses were also built for Pere Marquette, Missouri Pacific, and Chicago & Eastern Illinois. Key features include true - to - scale dimensions with accurate details, weighted and detailed underframes, AccuMate® Knuckle Couplers, trucks with free - rolling metal wheels, and clear window inserts with separately applied side railings.

Using your Atlas Trainman HO scale cupola caboose is easy. Just place it on your HO scale train track and couple it to your train using the AccuMate® Knuckle Couplers. When handling the caboose, be gentle as it has delicate parts like the separately applied side railings. To keep it in good condition, clean it regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they can damage the paint and details. Store it in a dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. If you notice any loose parts, you can use a small amount of glue suitable for model trains to fix them, but be careful not to get glue on visible surfaces.
