Bluford Shops N 44250 International Car Company Half-Bay Window Caboose Phase 4 Burlington Northern BN #11702

Burlington Northern phase 4 caboose number 11702 was a bit of an oddball. Unlike BN’s 1977 order for phase 4 cars and most of the repainted Frisco fleet, this former Frisco car had its BN logo, lettering and road number painted to the left of the bay window. This left plenty of room to put the con-stencil on the right, where most railroads put them.

Bluford Shops International Car Bay Window Caboose Phase 4 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 each phase features a number of bay window style and other detail variations. This N Scale International Car Window Caboose Phase 4 has a steeper pitch on wide bay sides, a dual-pane window and flatter top on the bay window. The ready-to-run model 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.
