Product Information

Used for transfer runs across town, these cabooses can still be found in service as "shoving platforms," providing a safe place for the conductor to work during reverse movements.
 
Models come ready-to-run with magnetically operating knuckle style couplers, metal detail parts and appropriate trucks for the road name.
 
While parent NYC (later PC) was building transfer cabooses for themselves in the late 60s and early 70s, they built 20 for the IHB. They were built with Century green paint. This black and orange scheme was adopted in 1983.
