Sporting the colors of The Clark and Wilson Lumber Company this wood sided cupola caboose is likely a C-30-1.

Clark & Wilson Lumber Company operated logging railroads until 1944 when it began scrapping its railroad lines. Clark Wilson was bought by Crown Zellerbach in 1945 which relied on the use of log trucks to ship logs to its mills.

This caboose is now a part of the many logging related artifacts that can be found at the Camp 18 Restaurant and Logging Museum located in Elsie, Oregon.
