CC 199506 |
| Description: |
Former Chicago Central caboose 199506 was on display at Delmar, Iowa on 6-4-2011. One of the railfans who came by that day stopped on the rear platform. This view gives some perspective as to the size of the end platform, door, etc. |

CC 199506, interior behind conductor's desk |
| Description: |
Former Chicago Central caboose 199506 was on display at Delmar, Iowa on 6-4-2011. This view, IINM, faces the end wall behind the conductor's desk. Note the neatly labeled switch boxes and red-painted box for the "torpedoes" and cooling compound. I'm also pretty sure that's a handrail going through the center. Cabooses like these were once part of nearly every train in the USA; now only a few survive but displays like this will continue to keep the story of American railroading alive for years to come. |

| Description: |
Former Chicago Central caboose 199506 was on display at Delmar, Iowa on 6-4-2011. This is a cropped view of the previous photo, looking south at the caboose's side. Note the word "Elizabeth" painted on the side, under the cupola. This is something I don't recall seeing on any other caboose. |

| Description: |
Former Chicago Central caboose 199506 was on display at Delmar, Iowa on 6-4-2011. This view looks west, towards the depot. The depot had and maybe still has a couple of very nice museums and a military (Civil War?) re-enactment was scheduled to take place later that day, IIRC. |

CC 199506, conductor's desk |
| Description: |
Former Chicago Central caboose 199506 was on display at Delmar, Iowa on 6-4-2011. This view shows the conductor's desk and seemingly comfortable chair (full disclosure: I didn't sit down in it!). Both seem a little worse for wear. That metal brace under the desk must have been very useful on many occasions! Note also the other various pipes in view and there may have been more. Comments about these are welcomed. |
