This Southern Pacific caboose is one of 67 Class C-50-5 bay window cabooses built for Southern Pacific in 1974. The above link contains specifics on this caboose type including unique features and a photo of the unit while still in operation.

This unit was one of eight Southern Pacific Cabooses rescued from a scrappers torch by the Train Mountain Railroad Museum in the 1990s. The plan is to convert this caboose into a restroom for the facility.

Train Mountain is a members only organization dedicated to railroad heritage preservation. A tour of the location can be arranged by contacting Train Mountain.
