San Luis Central Caboose Kit

Good candidate for a 1 car train!

This car can make a one-car train. It can be used as a drover's caboose.

The San Luis Central Railroad (reporting mark SLC) is a railroad company based in the U.S. state of Colorado. It was founded in 1913 to haul sugar beets from grower to processor. The railroad was acquired in 1969 by the Pea Vine Corporation and today operates freight traffic through a connection with the San Luis and Rio Grande Railroad hauling mainly grain, potatoes and fertilizer. SLC is also a railcar owner, mostly refrigerator cars and boxcars. The railroad is 13 miles (21 km) long, located between Sugar Junction (east of Monte Vista, Colorado) and Center, Colorado. The railroad owns two locomotives: Electro Motive Division SW8 number 70 and General Electric 70 ton locomotive number 71. The company is owned by Rail World, Inc., which is controlled by Ed Burkhardt. Burkhardt is listed as president of SLC.

P.S.: The color matching the prototype is an ugly green. If you like weathered rolling stock, OK. I'd be inclined to "cheat" and make it a lighter green ....... nexttime. :-)
