ETWNC 503 HO
$55.00
This caboose served the ET&WNC railroad for many years and could be uniquely identified by its’ lack of a copula. Because of this, it received the nickname of the “copula-less caboose”. In its’ later years, the caboose could be found at Cranberry, NC serving as a bachelor pad for Cy Crumbly, the locally well-known conductor who served the railroad for 54 years. This is a one-of-a-kind model designed by Benjamin Merritt.
