Looking for Caboose Group

Brian T. Wise · **Posted:** Tue Nov 27, 2001 6:51 pm

It seems to me that I once heard of a national group dedicated to the history/preservation of the railroad caboose. Does anyone have any information on such a group? My searches on the internet have been fruitless.

Thanks for the help.

It sounds like you're looking for a group known as "ARCHES," which stands for some lengthy string of words relating to American cabooses. I know very little about this group, but ran a search and came up with their website:

Check out RRcaboose on Yahoo groups. Seems to be a lively group with a lot of cab locations and histories.

Thank you for your help. I had heard the group was called "ARCHES", but my search engine didn't locate their URL (must have misspelled it). That is the group I seek. Thanks again.
