streamlined caboose MOC - real world WIP
I had some leftover green bricks from finding parts for my '59 Cadillac MOC, so I decided to use them and build a small model. This then snowballed into this 1930's streamlined caboose, which was inspired by a very similar real-world Wabash caboose located on the Katy Rail-Trail at St. Charles, Missouri. This caboose model is also inspired build-wise by the Katy Caboose (as in, "The Caboose who got Loose" from the children's book) model I copied in late 2021 from TrainedBricks' MOC.
The printed 1x4 bricks may be replaced with letter tiles saying the railroad's name. (I'm not sure at this time what I'm gonna do with that part of the model, so idea that may change.)
