This is the start of my PRSL Transfer caboose. I just got the shell on Saturday. I am building everything that is missing from brass. It started as a PRS 50' boxcar roof. I am going for "good enough" here. I did not have plans to supply. One still survives about 2 hours from here. Ironically I am planning a visit to it in about a month for MY part of the build, after the cab was built! Oh well.
This caboose is a little out of my era but I have a Overland GP38-2 that will alleged to be PRSL at some point. I am big on matching cabeese to the engines. 2 items that are still not resolved are the material to make the large open metal grid porches. I am hoping to find suitable (meaning close enough) brass trucks with a leaf spring for it, but am likely to use the American Models caboose trucks. If you have a spare set of AM caboose trucks laying around let me know.
