None yet. It is an oft-requested item though.
Only two cabooses have been produced so far.

They made a caboose, but only in two road names. Wondering why so few? Bad seller? Or is their design too close to Lionel's version and they had to stop?
Have you checked this thread?
There was a Menards Army Caboose shown in a video several weeks back. No one seemed to notice.

Yes, Menards made a caboose with two rear-facing LEDs in two mid-western road names & then stopped. They looked good, too. Very peculiar situation as Menards obviously produces any one given item in many, many road names. Looked pretty much exactly like Lionel's design. Perhaps Lionel made them for Menards then refused to do more?
I sat around waiting for an Army caboose from Menards and gave up. I too ended up buying the RMT version. I would've preferred a Menards version with blinking LEDs though.

Me too! With so many other great Army cars they have made an Army caboose should be a logical addition to the line up.

No.

Also no.
As I mentioned above, a Menards Army Caboose is clearly shown in one of their videos from several weeks ago.
