Before being put on permanent display, this caboose was was being used on the excursion train that offers scenic train rides around Jamestown.
In addition to the caboose on display, there is also a "Crew Caboose", used by the volunteers in the park.
Since this a hard to get category, we leave that one for a fellow waymarker to log.
