Can Bachmann post a photo of the new caboose and is there anything else new?

Sadly Royce, it seems like we're not going to be able to win an 8-18d 2-6-0 This year.

Is there an estimate of when the new caboose will be available?   And maybe when we should be able to find/purchase it in the market?

I'm not able to bring up the image from "Yardmaster"s post.   It just brings up a dark grey screen with a white line thru it.

I suspect that those cabooses will prove popular. A lot of people have kit-bashed their old cupola cabooses by moving the cupolas to one end or the other and the logging caboose has been sorely missed.

And Bachmann, don't feel bashful about doing limited-runs for your logging cabooses in Midwest Quarries and Colorado Mining colors! I suspect that 'logging cabooses" would be as likely to turn up on other industrial railroads as they would on logging operations.

I would say don't give them dedicated road names.
Saves me a lot of trouble getting them of with brake fluid.

Many thanks Bachmann

I missed out on getting a non-cupola caboose when they were previously made, its just what I need.
