Made my donation. This caboose is historic and deserves rescue. The damage is actually superficial. Help preserve a caboose which locked couplers with G5's and H-10's, and usher out thousands of refrigerators loaded with Long Island spuds.

Thanks Richard. The underframe is still in great shape as well. Woodwork is "easy" in comparison.

Cheers,

Chris
