UP FEATURES:
• L-angle porch supports • Straight steps • Unshielded walkway lights
• Two window screens options included
Inspired by Union Pacific’s examination of Missouri Pacific’s shop-built bay-window cabooses, the CA-11 represents the last newly-built caboose
ordered by the Union Pacific. Not having to climb ladders into a cupola, having features like an ice box, National Swing Motion trucks, and cushioned
couplers, the ride was compared to the best passenger cars in term of crew comfort.

UP FEATURES:
• Modified ‘boxed’ porch supports • Additional door-side grab irons • Lowered and extended steps
• Shielded walkway lights • Side-mounted tack boards • Two window screen options included
Within a few years, UP’s CA-11 fleet began to receive modifications based on crew feedback. External changes included the L-angle porch supports
being enclosed to reduce injuries, extra grab irons were added around the doors, steps were changed to reduce fatigue, and walkway lights were
shielded to protect night-vision from the bay-windows.

UP FEATURES:
• Roof-mounted Nathan K3 air horn • Roof-Mounted brass bell
• Additional CA-11a prototype features
Many CA-11 cabooses continued life as shoving platforms; their large porches ideal for a comfortable and protected position for such an operation.
The long reversing maneuver required for this Fresno, CA based caboose encountered many dangerous road crossings. In 2008, it was “restored”
with a slight paint scheme variation and the addition of headlights (non-functioning on the model), air horn, and roof-mounted bell.

UP FEATURES:
• Unique body style with enclosed end porches • Features insulated,-non-opening windows
• MU pedestal and rubber Signal hoses unique to these cars • Additional center-mounted porch light
• #25809 - Original straight steps • #25872 - Modified steps
Union Pacific modified a total of five CA-11 cabooses to serve as ‘Snowbuses’. Two of these had their porches fully enclosed for this assignment.
These cars were equipped with MU and signal hoses as they were positioned in the middle of back to back locomotives which amounted to the entire
train. The Snowbus would ferry crews to locations otherwise unreachable in the worse weather. Recently, 25809 was included in 2023’s Big Boy
#4014 excursion train.

INPR FEATURES:
• Ex-UP • CA-11a modified features
Union Pacific began selling off low-traffic branches in the late ‘80s. The INPR was formed to continue service in Eastern Oregon and the Western
edge of Idaho, interchanging with the Union Pacific. They acquired three ex-up CA-11a cabooses for their operations in the early 1990s.

Assembled and unpainted, ready for customization. Built to the same specifications as the final Union Pacific version with the idea that these caboose
entered the second hand market in greater numbers.
