This is TTM's oldest caboose, but its not quite that simple. It was originally built in 1919 as a box car and was rebuilt into its current configuration as a transfer caboose in 1952. It was operated by the Missouri Pacific RR. This railroad, also known as MOPAC, owned three out of four of the cabooses at the Texas Transportation Museum, although we did not obtain any of them directly from MOPAC. Missouri Pacific transfer caboose 11919 is currently awaiting restoration.
