SL-SF 649
SL-SF 649. Oklahoma City, OK. Oklahoma Railway Museum. 3/19/2023.
This is a confusing caboose. The caboose on site is SL-SF 649, and listed on the ORM website is 649. However... the OK Railfan site (ok.railfan.net) and Captive Cabeese In America list this caboose as 659.
Either way, the car was originally located at the Oklahoma State Fairgrounds Transportation Building, and donated to the ORM in 2015. It was restored in 2016, although the paint is now a bit weathered.
