The 6517 is a common item manufactured in the late 1950‘s and was Lionel‘s top-of-the-line caboose for their O gauge line. Based upon looks, the bay window caboose was a radical change from the standard cabooses in the Lionel family. This change was well received by the train community as it remained in production for five years along with a brief appearance in 1966. For the first five years, the bay window caboose was produced with Lionel Lines as the roadname. When the caboose was re-introduced for a single year (1966), it wore the Erie roadname on its sides. The Erie version is a desireable caboose and very difficult to locate. This is also the only postwar caboose to ever have the Erie roadname. This caboose features interior illumination, a smoke stack, metal ladders, die-cast metal trucks, die-cast metal operating knuckle couplers, metal wheels and axles.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis item has been graded per TCA standards C-6: Very Good based on visual appearance.
