Thanks to (visit link) for bringing this to my attention. He says that it was previously at a museum in Enid, OK.

There is also a depot type building labelled Rock Island Junction and another passenger train car on display nearby.

The caboose is located on private property S of W. 151st St. and W of S. Bell Rd., but it is accessible and the caretaker said I could walk around and view it. The caboose is located near a large oval track which might be for racing horses.
Current Use:
private display

Type Of Caboose: Extended Vision
Visit Instructions:
