This caboose is on display in the Puddicombe Farms Estate Winery. The standard red cupola sits next to the miniature railway. The caboose was created by the Canadian Car & Foundry in 1917 as a normal box car. In use by the Canadian Government in the 1920 and 30s the car was bought by Canadian National and turned into CN Caboose 79044 in 1956.

79044 was sold to Procar for display before being bought by the Puddicombe Farm in 2005. Although the side that is on display is in good condition the side out of view seems to have degraded greatly.

Please Note there may be a fee required to enter the area at certain times.
Current Use:
Display by miniature railway


Type Of Caboose: Cupola, "Standard"
