This is a MTH 30-77289 O Gauge Union Pacific Bay-Window Caboose #259112. As freight cars grew taller, observing a train from the cupola of a caboose became increasingly difficult. In the wooden car era, another problem with cupola cabooses was sagging roofs. In an effort to solve these problems, the Akron, Canton & Youngstown railroad introduced the bay window caboose in 1923. (In fact, however, bay windows had been used on New York & Harlem Railroad passenger cars as far back as the 1850s, to enable conductors to better anticipate station arrivals). It features Intricately Detailed, Durable ABS Body, Stamped Metal Floors, Metal Wheels and Axles, Diecast 4-Wheel Trucks, Fast-Angle Wheel Sets, Needle-Point Axles, (2) Operating Diecast Metal Couplers, Caboose Interiors With Overhead Lighting, Detailed Brake Wheel, Separate Metal Handrails, Near-Scale Proportions, Unit Measures:10 1/2 x 2 1/4 x 3 1/2, Operates On O-31 Curves.
