| Post subject: | Milwaukee Road caboose to Sioux City Railroad Museum |
The museum located at the old Milwaukee Road roundhouse and yard in Sioux City, Iowa has apparently received an ex-Milwaukee Road bay window caboose from the Dakota & Iowa Railroad. Cosmetically restored Great Northern 4-6-2 #1355 is the main attraction for the museum, although there are other pieces of railroad equipment on the property. Unfortunately, there is no equipment roster on their website. No info as to the road number of the Milwaukee Road caboose. Les |

There's a Facebook post on the 'Ahead of the Torch' Facebook page, that shows the caboose on a flatbed trailer. A large '99' is painted on the side of the caboose. I don't know enough about MILW caboose #s to say whether that's the MILW number or not, but I suspect it isn't. |

Milwaukee cabooses were in the 99xxxx series in the 1970s. |
