(...) The best reason to build a caboose is because a caboose is a classic and romanticized part of trains. Everyone loves a caboose. Why buy LEGO's caboose? It looks like a fairly good model (don't have one yet), or it is a good source of parts. If (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.trains)
