Walthers Mainline 910-8776 Caboose NS - Norfolk Southern #555540 HO Scale

Get your HO freight trains running safely with the Walthers Mainline International Wide - Vision Caboose trailing behind! These HO models, introduced in the 1960s, are designed so crews can see over larger freight cars. They're based on prototypes with a full - width cupola ending at the car roof edge. Key features of this model include: prototypes in service from the 1960s to 1980s (some still used as shoving platforms today), a wide - vision cupola with two window styles, a Stanray overhanging diagonal panel roof, thin see - through running boards, finely molded end ladders, scale - thickness end railings, an appropriate underbody toolbox, molded drill starter points for grab irons (easily added with the separately sold Caboose Detail Kit #910 - 201), Barber Swingmaster roller bearing trucks with 33' RP - 25 turned metal wheelsets, and Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers.

Using your Walthers Mainline Caboose is easy. Just place it at the end of your HO freight train to keep it running safely. When handling the caboose, be gentle to avoid damaging the finely molded parts like the end ladders and scale - thickness end railings. For maintenance, clean the running boards and wheels regularly to ensure smooth movement. If you want to add grab irons, use the separately sold Caboose Detail Kit #910 - 201 following the molded drill starter points. Keep the caboose away from extreme temperatures and humidity to prevent any damage to the model.
