Atlas 50006325 NE-6 Caboose - Nickel Plate Road #719 (red, white, black) N Scale

This is the Atlas 50006325 NE - 6 Caboose in N Scale, representing Nickel Plate Road #719 in red, white, and black. Note that the picture might show a different road number. This N - scale model is inspired by the standard caboose design of the International Car Company of Kenton, Ohio, used in the 1940s. It's often linked with the New Haven Railroad, but many other rail lines used this body style too. These cabooses had a long - lasting operation, even into the diesel era. Key features include: ready - to - run functionality, finely detailed end rails, smokestack and ladders, brake line detail, a weighted chassis, appropriate friction - bearing or roller - bearing caboose trucks, factory - equipped AccuMate® couplers, accurate painting and printing, and railroad - specific features. There are two body styles: the New Haven style with windows closer to the cupola and the Nickel Plate style with windows further from the cupola.

Using this Atlas N Scale caboose is a breeze as it's ready - to - run right out of the box. Just place it on your N - scale track and watch it roll. When handling the caboose, be gentle with the finely detailed parts like the end rails, smokestack, and ladders to avoid any damage. The brake line detail is delicate, so take care not to bend it. For maintenance, keep the caboose clean. You can use a soft, dry cloth to dust it regularly. Check the AccuMate® couplers from time to time to ensure they're working properly. If you notice any issues with the friction - bearing or roller - bearing caboose trucks, it's best to consult a model train expert. Also, store the caboose in a dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its accurate painting and printing over time.
