Not aware of a caboose kit, let alone one in O.
A Google search turned up lots of photos and a drawing although perhaps different from the one pictured.
If you want one you might try Brother Love on the OGR Forum-he builds styrene masterpieces.

Don't know enough about Erie caboose breeds to state whether any of the Gloor Craft or Ambroid caboose kits were Erie and whether any would be good starting points to bash into this one.

Of course, at a distance of 3' with that much blurry aspect, you could probably get away with quite a lot.

According to what I could find by looking up Gloor Craft, they apparently offered an O scale kit for a wooden Erie caboose, their kit No. 511. Good luck finding one though.

Jon,

If all else fails you might be able to bash one from a PRR N5B cabin. There are a ton them out there, and the big difference appears to be the side windows.

Hmmmm..........I guess I've either just not seen one or not paid close attention.

Jon,

Somewhere I have a box lot of unfinished cabooses - I will look to see if there one of these hiding in there!

Dan, you could have picked a living language so you could understand someone; the Swiss in this advert even gave you the best odds, in both French and German, but you picked Latin!

If the lads here could keep an eye out, Chicago is a good bet to find one or two.

If I can do the trip to Strasburg in April, I'll look there, too.

My Mother wanted me to be a doctor

Chicago would be the place to fine one. If I see anything I'll post here.

[sarge]

Didn't all our mothers want us to be doctors back then?

Strasburg will be a good place to look, too, so I hope I can travel; given that's the case I'll look there if Chi-town doesn't give up her treasure.

For what it's worth, the listing does have "local pickup or additional shipping cost of 9 Swiss Francs"
but that may be only within EU countries.

Good luck, hope you find your caboose.

Strangely or perhaps not now that I think of it, but he could converse with me - many years of Latin, and some German as well. I actually was off to Med School but changed my mind much to the disappointment of the parental units.....but getting paid to go to grad school turned out for the better.

If I can do the trip to Strasburg in April, I'll look there, too.

I will be there and will look there as well as under my one storage bench area where a partially assembled one may be lurking in the dark.
