This CNW caboose #11207 was donated by the U.P. to the Historic Clarke House about 16 years ago and was going to be used as part of the museum. At that time a number of neighbors complained that it was going to be an eyesore and they didn't want it in their backyard! So it sat!
Over the years neighbors moved, opinions changed and finally as of Saturday it arrived at its new home. After undergoing a restoration and paint job she looks like new again! Local companies and residents donated a lot of their time and talents to get the job done!
The inside still needs to be worked on and a few details on the outside but it is at its new home!

P.S. it is only 1 block form Sommerfeld's Train Store!
