I got three cabooses from Industrial Rail by eBay. I noticed that O27 trucks 
but body shell and frame. It is an S scale  . . . . . . . . . . .

A frequent characteristic of O-27 bodies is that for S they are good in 
length and height, but are a little too wide.  The caboose you mention 
however, has a near-perfect S-scale body.  And it's a pretty good 
representation of an ATSF caboose, used by several other roads too. It has 
minor problems, like the bottom of the cupola windows, but the problems can 
be fixed or ignored.

This caboose in fact is the one some of my associates have been using to 
make cabooses of the Wabash & Ann Arbor style.  It requires a little 
razor-saw work, and the roof from an American Flyer bay window & cupola 
caboose.

 Trolleys body can be S Scale but O27 powered trucks have to remove . . . .

I have one on my to-do list.  Might be a candidate for the NWSL power trucks 
recently discussed.
