The next series of photos is of the interior of a C,B& Q Steel side caboose. It is in great shape and resides permanently in Galesburg behind the S-4 Hudson at the "Q" depot.  I found a treasure in the basement of my old home in Illinoins - an unused Caboose Lamp by Aladdin.  Still in the box.  I thought about keeping it but eBay it went.
