Atlas O Premier Northeast Caboose

In 1924, the Reading Company produced an all-steel caboose, deriving its general design from the 1920 USRA wooden models. This iconic design, commonly called the “NorthEastern Caboose” by railfans, found wide acceptance by many railroads across the NorthEast and Mid-Atlantic region, with original owners including the Western Maryland (1936), Lehigh & New England (1937), Lehigh Valley (1939), Pittsburgh & West Virginia (1940), Central Railroad of New Jersey (1942), and Lehigh & Hudson River (1942). These cabooses had long lifetimes, serving through the 1980s across numerous railroads and traveling to many places outside of the NorthEast, and are one of the more common exhibits preserved in many railroad museums and operated by tourist railroads today.
