[QUOTE="Sandpatch, post: 635062, member: 10543"] Nice photo Ted. A signature design from the B&O -- a wagontop caboose. U-shaped steel elements were used to structure the carbody along its length and steel sheet was attached to these, curving inward at the roofline to look something like a covered wagon. It resulted in an economical, strong and enduring marque of the B&O that was also adopted to boxcars and covered hoppers. I'm happy know that an example has been saved! [/QUOTE]
