4 out of 5 stars Good basic reference book with great photos   January 31, 2003
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

I bought this book while restoring a 70's era caboose for the local museum. It provides a good history of the caboose with its uses, variations and ultimate replacement by less expensive equipment. The photography is excellent (as is true with other books in this series). Very good value for the money.
