Manfred, Thanks for this redesign of the Caboose. It is a great improvement
in the appearance and the steps are certainly more secure.

To get the discussion back on Lego track again: I've recieved my copy of • the
Caboose set today, and I've discovered two worthwhile modifications.
First, for the elevated section, if you position the red plates 1 x 4
underneath the pairs of black windows, instead of on top of them, the
look-out hub looks much better, because of the higher position of the
windows and the now continuous black colour going from windows to roof.
Secondly, I believe it's better to attach the side-ladders underneath the
black plate 6 x 16 instead of on top of the red plates and black plate • with
Train Wagon End. The ladders fit perfecly beween the bottom plate and the
buffer beam part.

Greetings, M. Moolhuysen.
