The
Northeast Steel Caboose was one of the first standardized caboose designs built
for multiple railroads predominantly in the eastern U.S. Based on a 1920s-era Reading Railroad design,
which in turn was based on plans drawn up under the USRA in World War One. The Northeast Steel Caboose featured a raised
cupola, giving the crew elevated seats to inspect the train while moving. The cars were used extensively into the
1980s.
