Description

This Fox Valley Models 91011 N Milwaukee Rib-Side Low Bay Window Caboose #02067 is based on the ones built in 1951. In a bay window caboose, the crew monitoring the train sits in the middle of the car in a section of wall that projects from the side of the caboose. The windows set into these extended walls resemble architectural bay windows, so the caboose type is called a bay window caboose. This type afforded a better view of the side of the train and eliminated the falling hazard of the cupola. The bay window gainer favor with many railroads because it eliminated the need for additional clearances in tunnels and overpasses. On the west coast, the Milwaukee Road and the Northern Paciifc Railway used these cars, converting over 900 roof top cabooses to bay window caboosed in the late 1930’s. Milwaukee Road rib-side window cabooses are preserved at New Libson, Wisconsin, the Illinois Railway Museum, the Mt. Rainer Scenic Railroad, and Cedarburg, Wisconsin. This Fox Valley Models N scale caboose features already assembled rib-side bay window caboose features newly molded bodies with sharp paint and lettering, metal etched running boards, wire grab irons, is equipped with all new straight or drop frame trucks with Fox Valley Models metal wheels and Micro-Trains body mounted couplers.
