What I see there is the strong possibility to take any model bay window caboose model produced in the last 30 years….. Even a cast-off old shell… And rebuild it to become that wanted

I take it that you have these cars. Just look at the ends.

Garth: Unable to view any visual. If it was a short caboose, it was a "one or two of" and there is no kit There are no kits of L&N Bay Window cabooses built in our era, either the wood or steel

Rich, Since you are looking for plastic, your choices are rather bit limited. The Athearn car is probably your best choice. It more or less represents an SP prototype circa 1954, though

Dean, Why not rig up your own temporary jig to clamp/grip one side of the bend? I would think some beefy cross section plastic having a straight edge ought to get the job done. Tom Casey
