Larry Platt	General	According to the MoPac caboose book by G. J. Michels, Jr. page 221, there were 6 steel cabooses built for C&EI by AC&F to the Magor C&O design, these 6 went to the MP. The main difference in the MP Magor and the AC&F design is in the brakewheel. This caboose has a vertical mounted brake wheel, the Magor MP cabs have a horizontal power brake. This could be a C&O caboose. I am saying MP based on the fact it is in Texas, which means nothing.	8/5/2015 12:22:17 AM

Unknown Steel Cupola Caboose
This caboose is probably an ex-C&IE ( there were only 6 of them, at least 4 survive) that went to the MoPac. This one and the red one were found sitting in Canutillo, TX, at the Davenport's, 7205 Doniphan Drive.
