Medicine Park, Oklahoma

BN 10118 was a caboose we found as we were driving from Medicine Park to the Wichita Mountains. It looks like it was a restaurant at one time, but we could not tell if it was still open.

The caboose is located on SH 49, east of the SH 49 entrance into the Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Refuge, and just outside of Medicine park itself. The caboose body is resting on the ground, with no wheels. It is in the parking lot of the Happy Hollow Souvenir Store, and looks to have been converted into a restaurant at one time.

The store itself was closed when we were there, although I am not sure if that was because of COVID or it was that way beforehand. Anyway, it looks to be privately owned, and we only got a few pictures of it. I need to contact Happy Hollow, and see if we can get its story…
