There's also a restaurant, a General Store and a motel in the group - and, of course, this green Caboose, fresh off the Burlington Northern Railroad. Well, maybe not fresh off the railroad, but late of the Burlington Northern, in any event.
Sold into private hands after retirement from the Burlington Northern, the caboose was manufactured in July of 1978. It's a fairly modern, steel, wide vision caboose, probably retired in the late 1980s or sometime in the 1990s. Now it's a tourist draw for the little mall of other tourist draws at the location.
