| constructed by the International Car Co. in 1948. It was built as part of a ten-car order to replace the NYS&W’s aging fleet of wooden cabooses. It is a standard International steel NE-6 Cupola – style caboose design. Over the next 30 years, No. 0112 served the Susquehanna well until it was retired and sold to a private individual in 1979. In 1982 the car was acquired by the Morristown & Erie Railway (M&E). Shortly thereafter, it was refurbished by the M&E shop crew and painted and lettered into the Morristown & Erie scheme and given the road number "4". The caboose features solar-powered lighting which was installed by the railroad in the mid-1980’s. In 2011 the caboose was retired from freight service and in January 2012, it was acquired by the Whippany Railway Museum. |
