A light load for the 3823 today, as it brought NHN's Bay Window Caboose 100 to an annual festival. The caboose was brought to downtown Sanbornville for their "Pride Day". They had the caboose open to the public to view. Usually there is a lot more people but due to the rain not many people showed up. The interior of the caboose had many photos of NHN GP9's also hand painting of the GP9s at numerous places. The inside had many nice seats and was fully restore with wanes coating half way up on the walls and nice wallpaper from there up. In the bottom left corner you can see the granite blocks of the foundation of the turntable once used by B&M.


Note the hole where an air conditioner had been cut in confirming it is TYBR 477 - former Conrail 24519
