Description

Used for transfer runs across town, these cabooses can still be found in service as “shoving platforms,” providing a safe place for the conductor to work during reverse movements.
 
Models come ready-to-run with magnetically operating knuckle style couplers, metal detail parts and appropriate trucks for the road name.
 
ICG inherited 16 steel transfer cabooses from Gulf, Mobile & Ohio in the 1972 merger. For the next six years, cars due for repainting received orange paint and the dotted-rail logo. Placement of the lettering varied from car to car and two of these variations are presented in this run.
