Thanks, guys.

The caboose on the far right (1816) was my first attempt at 'coloring' a B&W photo. I assumed that the color would be the same as 1855. If anyone knows any different, let me know.

I will add LV, CNJ & Reading at least, maybe Conrail if there's interest (Gaetan has done PC, LNE and L&HR already).

If possible it would be nice to see Conrail and perhaps some of the FF that made up Big Blue. Question

Skip,

No problem. Gaetan already has done LNE, L&HR and PC (with his individual sets). I will have Conrail, CNJ, Reading & LV for sure, plus some "non-Conrail" (WM, Rock Island, Maine Central, CRandIC). Any other suggestions, I'd be glad to consider.

I've seen similar cabeese from ACY, P&S and others, but the steps are different, so I'm not currently considering them. I may also do D&H (they wound up with LV units after Conrail). With all the variations in just LV, WM & CNJ, I'm already up to a dozen units!! Shocked

Rick, thanks for doing the CR caboose, nice, very nice. You know a train is just not a train unless it has a caboose at the end with the marker lamps hung. Can you tell me when and where these will be released ? Thanks agin for doing the Big Blue. Very Happy

I will release them soon, I think.

I've decided not to do Rock Island or Maine Central with the set (I'm thinking of doing a Maine Central 'mini set' similar to Gaetan's L&HR at some point, not sure when).

This set will have 20+ cabooses (cabeese?) in it.
