There's a similar streamlined cupola caboose on the west side of I-45 between Houston and Galveston out front of a storage facility. Been there a LONG time, no idea the origins or history.

That caboose, GN X-310, was a one-off prototype with a slightly rounded cupola. It can be considered the predecessor that eventually led to the production of the X-1 through X-30 series.
