HO CA-11a Caboose with Lights & Sound, UP 'Madera Flyer' (ATHG-1461)

This HO-scale CA-11a Union Pacific caboose with lights and sound in the Madera Flyer livery blends classic caboose character with modern detail. Inside, a fully detailed interior includes a conductor’s desk and crew amenities, while the exterior features see-through end platforms, etched window screens, flush glazing, and laser-sharp roadname and road-number graphics. LED interior and marker lighting, plus an on-board DCC decoder by NCE, drive the action in both DCC and analog layouts. The car rides on machined metal wheels with RP25 contours, is weighted for reliable operation, and arrives fully assembled and ready to run.

On UP layouts, the Madera Flyer version adds prototypical flair with lit high-mounted headlamps, a roof-mounted Nathan K3 air horn, and a brass bell, plus CA-11a prototype features. It supports multiple road numbers and road-name-specific decoration for roster variety, and its DCC/DC compatibility, NMRA-compliant functions, and solid ride make it a versatile addition to freight trains, yards, or mainline scenes.
