HO Cupola Caboose RI #17867 (ATH74029)

HO Scale Cupola Caboose RI 17867 is a detailed model of the classic end-of-train car. The cupola provides an elevated lookout for the conductor and rear brakeman, mirroring the real-world role of watching the train for issues such as overheated wheel bearings, shifting loads, and damaged equipment as it moves along the rails.

Designed for HO layouts, this caboose blends authentic detailing with dependable running performance. It features a finely detailed injection-molded body, painted decoration, and clear windows, plus weight for steady tracking. The model rides on Barber or Bettendorf swing-motion caboose trucks with machined metal wheels and RP25 contours, uses body-mounted McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers, and includes fine end handrails and ladders, a separately applied smoke jack and brake wheel. With a minimum radius of 15 inches, it fits most HO tracks and layouts and delivers a realistic end-of-train presence.
