With a perch up in the wooden cupola of this Northern Pacific caboose, the conductor would have a high view of the train stretching out before him. This allowed him to spot for problems in the cars ahead. |

| Description: |
A major necessity was this kerosene lantern to light the interior of the caboose at night. Note the rigid metal brackets that hold it solidly to the wall. This prevented potential fires from splilled lamps as the caboose swayed and shook as the tail of the train.. |
