N ICC CA-11a Caboose UP #25843 (ATHG-1645)

This N-scale Union Pacific CA-11a Caboose, road number 25843, is a highly detailed, ready-to-run model designed to bring authentic UP operations to any freight train on the layout. It features laser-sharp painting and printing, see-through end platforms and steps, wire-form grab irons, and body-mounted scale knuckle-spring couplers, with full underframe detail and an interior that includes a conductor’s desk, stove, sink, bathroom, radio stand and more. The car sits on machined metal RP25 wheels and is weighted for smooth, reliable operation on most N-scale tracks. It ships fully assembled and ready to run, with a minimum radius of 9-3/4 inches on typical layouts.

UP road-name variants capture the CA-11a’s evolution, including As Delivered, Madera Flyer, Modified and Snowbus configurations. As Delivered features include L-angle porch supports and straight steps (with two window-screen options); Madera Flyer adds a roof-mounted Nathan K3 air horn and brass bell; Modified cars bring additional door-side grab irons, lowered and extended steps, shielded walkway lights, and side-mounted tack boards; Snowbus variants showcase enclosed end porches, insulated non-opening windows, MU pedestals and rubber signal hoses, plus an extra center-mounted porch light. This range of detailing gives modelers a faithful, prototypical UP caboose that fits seamlessly into any UP freight lash-up.
