Throwback Thursday - Classic Woody

GTW wood caboose 77137 was on display at an Elgin County Railway Museum open house on August 24, 2008.    

By Peter Mumby.
In my post of March 14, 2024 entitled “In Search of a Home” I outlined how GTW 77137 spent a couple of decades at various Southern Ontario locations before landing at the Elgin County Railway Museum.  Today’s photos show the car in all its restored finery at the ECRM.  This fine example of period rolling stock was built 2/15/1891 and is still rolling on archbar trucks.  

This view shows some of the other restored gems in the ECRM collection.
