Adam's 1:1 scale Conrail caboose.
2016
And you thought G gauge trains were big? ;) GGGRS club member Adam Lloyd has his own full-scale Conrail caboose! Adam purchased the caboose in 2016 with his own funds, and is now raising money to have it moved to the
Rochester & Genesee Valley Railroad museum. Click here for Adam's facebook page for the caboose project, and click here for Adams gofundme page.
Update! Adam's caboose was moved the Rochester & Genesee Valley Railroad museum in August 2016. Repairs and restoration have begun! Click here for Adam's facebook page for ongoing updates. Congratulations Adam! a very cool project.
