Bluford Shops N 40131 International Car Company Half-Bay Window Caboose Penn Central 'Giant Worms Scheme' PC #21781

Like its predecessor, Penn Central was awash in caboose paint scheme variations. It’s possible that this version with a very large ‘worms’ logo and large billboard name was due to the use of boxcar stencils instead of the smaller caboose stencils which were missing, damaged or simply not yet made. This road name will be available in 2 road numbers.

Bluford Shops International Car Half-Bay Window Caboose is based on the family of steel bay window cabooses developed by International Car Company beginning in the early 1950s. Over the years the design of the bay windows evolved, and this version represents the half-bay window ordered by New York Central and its affiliates and used into the Conrail era. The N Scale International Car Half-Bay Window Cabooses features wire grab irons, body mounted magnetically operating knuckle couplers, close coupling and Fox Valley Models metal wheels. Ladders and running boards are included on appropriate paint schemes for each version.
