in one of the links followed out on that listing is this:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/O-SCALE-WOOD-C ... 3614380393?

Heck of a deal for a standard run-of-the-mill Walthers caboose. Ninety bucks, improbable road name, needs repainting.......most I ever paid for one was five bucks, and usually GIVEN to me.
The good part is if you take them apart, whack one end shorter, add a Lionel cupola, repaint and letter for NP, you have something...well, four somethings here.

But NOT ninety bucks. Geez, the boxes of these things I have I'd be able to retire.
