There's a wide vision Conrail caboose floating around Jackson yard? Haven't seen one of those in YEARS and longer! Bay windows and transfers can still be seen in a few various yards. Any photos?Two old Conrail cabooses are still haunting Jackson Yard one is a wide vision style the other is a transfer style.

Pretty sure that the wide vision caboose had been in Jackson for quite some time now, we photographed it a couple years ago when visiting the Amtrak exhibit train in Jackson, so at least 2011

That would be a bay window caboose, been there for years. I'm curious as to where the transfer caboose came from. Unless I missed a caboose on 38E, which is highly plausible. There was an old transfer hack that went west about... Must be 4-5 years ago. Wonder if its the same one.YpsiAmtrakBoy wrote:Pretty sure that the wide vision caboose had been in Jackson for quite some time now, we photographed it a couple years ago when visiting the Amtrak exhibit train in Jackson, so at least 2011
