HO ICC CA-11a Caboose with Lights and Sound UP #25835 (ATHG-1459)

HO Scale Union Pacific CA-11a Caboose with Lights and Sound is a highly detailed, ready-to-run model that captures UP’s CA-11a caboose with upgraded interior and exterior features. Inside, a full conductor’s desk, stove, sink, and bath are paired with see-through end platforms, etched window screens, flush glazing, and accurate roadname detailing. The car rolls on machined RP25 wheels and is weighted for dependable performance on HO track. LED interior and marker lights with brightness control illuminate the car, and an on-board DCC decoder supports both DCC and analog operation with the lighting controllable in DCC mode. The model arrives fully assembled, accurately painted, and ready to run, with a minimum radius of 18 inches required to navigate layout curves.

Designed for HO railroading, this UP caboose integrates smoothly into yard and mainline scenes, either on its own or in a mixed consist with locomotives and freight cars. The sound-equipped version adds authentic operations—horn or whistle, wheel clack, brake sounds, and emergency brake effects—triggered by DCC commands, enhancing realism as trains move through yards or along the line. Built with durable construction and prototype-faithful underbody detail, it’s a robust centerpiece for a UP-focused roster and pairs well with standard HO equipment on typical layouts.
