As far as I know (and can see on the website), Bachmann does not make N scale Bobber Cabooses (
for seperate sale). They only make 36' Wide-Vision Cabooses in Union Pacific, AT&SF, BN, CSX, Erie Lackawanna, & N&W.

Good call there, I forgot about that Jupiter set, but I edited my post a while ago and it didn't change for some reason. I put in a part that read "for separate sale," I don't know why it didn't change, oh well...it doesn't really matter...maybe my internet stopped working.
There is a seller on FEEpay whose ID is sunnyswarehouse. To those of us who hit GREEDberg shows on the Atlantic Seaboard, they were known as the 'Bachmann Babes'. They sell all sorts of HO and N B-mann stuff, including the four wheel cabooses, in N scale at least. If you will send them an inquiry using the 'ask seller a question' function, they will probably list one for you.
I have not seen them at the last couple of G-Bergs, even the one at Edison, New Jersey, and they live in the Philadelphia Jersey Suburbs somewhere. I wonder what happened to them. The ID is still active on FEEpay and they still list auctions.
