Four numbers lower
Just four numbers lower at PC 18474 and I would have found the caboose, or "cabin car" that I practically grew up in. PC Model N-11 18478 is on display in downtown Union City, Indiana along CSX's ex-Big 4 (CCC&StL)/NYC/PC/CR Indianapolis Line Sub. This cabin car was never red while in service though, and wore PC green when built by PC in their ex-NYC Despatch Shops, then later Conrail blue.
