RE: (erielack) EL Caboose in "N"

Fred,

	For my "mini EL" collection, I did get one of the Walthers cabooses
- - it's painted red, and is a a very good representation of the C371-C380
series (even though it's painted up as a C351-series hack - only difference
is that the latter had end ladders and a roofwalk).
	The car isn't perfect, but it's darn close - windows are slightly
off, and it needs a diagonal panel roof (it comes with an X-panel roof).
Their paint job was pretty good, too! By all means, check this one out!

	- Paul
