HO Cupola Caboose EJ&E #520 (ATH74036)

HO Scale Cupola Caboose EJ&E #520 is a detailed model of the classic end-of-train car used on American railroads. The cupola sits above the roof, providing an elevated lookout for the conductor and rear brakeman to observe the train and spot issues like overheating wheel bearings, shifting loads, or damaged equipment as it moves.

Designed for realism and reliable operation on HO scale layouts, this caboose features a finely detailed injection-molded body, precise end handrails and ladders, prototype-specified Barber or Bettendorf swing-motion caboose trucks, and a weighted chassis for smooth running. It comes painted and printed for lifelike decoration, with clear windows, separately applied smoke jack and brake wheel, machined metal wheels with RP25 contours for compatible operation on most track brands, and body-mounted McHenry scale knuckle couplers. A minimum radius of 15 inches ensures it performs well on typical layout curves.
