HO Scale - Minneapolis & St. Louis (M&Stl) Cupola Caboose - CNW American Model Builders and the Chicago & North Western Historical Society joined together to developed this HO scale caboose kit of a Minneapolis & St. Louis (M&Stl) Cupola Caboose and you will be purchasing it directly from the CNWHS. The M&Stl Coupla Caboose actually had its heritage starting with the Lehigh Valley. In the late 1930s, the M&StL received nine 95000 series cabooses from the LV – the first steel underframe crummies on this Midwest road. After a complete rebuilding at their Iowa Central Shops into full width cupola style cars, the M&StL renumbered their new wood sheathed cabooses 1100 through 1108. In turn, these cars were used as patterns for twelve more nearly identical cupola cabooses built new in 1940 and numbered 1109 – 1120. The entire series was used extensively on the system with several of the 32 foot long crummies still on the roster when the Chicago & North Western Railroad took over the M&Stl Railraod in 1960.

This 100% Laser-Cut kit incorporates American Model Builders typical caboose construction with Tab & Slotted bass wood subwalls and Peel & Stick, read more
