Eastern Car Works Caboose Kit 

I pciked up the Eastern Car Works "North East Standard Caboose - Undecorated" kit from Mainline Hobby in Blue Ridge Summit, PA on August 9, 2003.

The kit comes with separate trucks, grabs, ends and walkways to model a variety of prototypes. My first impression of the kit is that it is very nice, although the rivet detail is a bit deep and the paneling is very overscale in thickness.

I have one of these caboose kits.
