I know this is 2 rail but I don’t imagine the guys over there would find much interest in this, but look at the size of that thing :shock: :lol:

Not sure, but it seems to me it might be what is called a "Drovers" caboose. Don't ask me why that name and it's origin, and if I missed it by a mile, I'm claiming senility.

Cowboys that tended to the cattle in stock cars rode in the drovers caboose.
