Rock Island transfer caboose 19161 at Blue Island, Illinois on July 12, 1982, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Note that it has had a close encounter on the lower right corner; the Z braces are bent and some steel plates cover the wood. This car was one of seven in the 19160-19166 number series, rebuilt from road cabooses in the 17600 series which had been rebuilt in 1943 from class B-2 boxcars. |
