This Caboose Was Left Just as the Railroad Retired It

Step inside an original Southern Pacific caboose left just as it was when retired. Bo Golson, who worked aboard this caboose back in the day, walks you through it from the exterior to the interior, with stories from the road along the way. Unlike most restored cars, this SP bay window caboose is still in original, as-retired condition, exactly how the railroad left it. We start on the outside, then head inside for a full walkthrough of the caboose, and all the details crews used every day. Bo explains what each part was for, how the crew lived and worked inside, and shares first-hand stories from his time working on this caboose. If you love railroad history and want to see what life was really like at the back of the train, you don't want to miss this one. Filmed at the Southern California Railway Museum (SCRM).
