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.
