Looking for a caboose to bring up the rear of your trains? The Rapido Trains Southern Pacific C-40-3 Steel caboose, in Southern Pacific (delivery scheme) colors, is exactly that kind of standout piece.
What sets this model apart is Rapido's signature prototype fidelity. Southern Pacific built these steel cupola cabooses at its Los Angeles General Shops from 1940: 185 cars numbered 1050 to 1234, plus 30 more for subsidiary Texas & New Orleans. This version reproduces the as-delivered (delivery) scheme. Rapido faithfully reproduces the steel carbody, the cupola with roofwalk, the trucks and the multicolor interior. Working lighting, etched-metal platforms and correct-height couplers: it is all here.
