  • This kit includes a resin cab, pewter frame, laser cut deck and roof, and photo-etch parts with option for open or closed doors. This requires Micro-Trains Z scale trucks with short shank coupler (not included). Some short shank couplers in these versions are: Arch Bar, Andrews, Barber and Bettendorf. And they come in both black and brown. Your choice. Probably, I would choose the Arch Bar trucks in black and weather them with rust colored chalk. Click "instructions" tab to see more detail.
    • Great model
      Wonderful model But it seems a bit too easy for me. You should put some more lead in the case.

    • Favorite Kit
      I’ve built just about every Showcase Miniatures Nn3 kits and it was no surprise that this caboose kit is another home run. 
      Of course the process of ordering, speed of shipping and high quality of packaging is unsurpassed. As always, all parts were included and no imperfections in any castings. 
      This build was my most enjoyable so far. Everything fit like a glove and the clear instructions helped bring it all together. The caboose body resin casting is flawless and the holes for the grab irons were perfect. The level of detail is very nice.  I used a sprue cutter to remove all the support pieces in the windows and doorways closed by needle files where needed. The caboose steps fit better if you file one of the step castings a tad bit more narrow. I glued a figure inside looking out the window for fun. I also suggest that you trim a tad bit from the top of the door if you want to model them open or ajar. They fit better that way. 
      Anyhoos, I highly recommend this kit for your layout or even a desktop display piece. 
      I look forward to the next Showcase Miniatures Nn3 kit!

    • Simply Outstanding
      The products that Showcase produces are top of the line and this caboose is no exception.  Detail to the "N"th degree.  Showcase never leaves me wondering why I ordered from them.
