Per the museum caretaker, this caboose was hauled across the pasture on a flatbed and lifted into place by a crane. Needs a coat of paint to brighten it up. Found no identification numbers, but the caretaker said it was a former leased CSX unit.

Per waymarker caboose9, "The Knob Creek caboose is ACL 0740, which later became SCL 0740. At one time the museum had it lettered as fake CRR 1085. ACL & SCL usually stamped the car number on the center sill and at other spots on the car body." So take a closer look to see if you can find the original ID number.
Current Use:
No actual use except for non-integrated display at the history museum.


Type Of Caboose: Cupola, "Standard"
