Learning About Cabooses

As we start this journey into the world of trains–and especially cabooses–I am trying to not get overwhelmed by how much we simply do not know! This will be a fun journey that we are making, one we look forward to.

Sapulpa, Oklahoma

Last Saturday, Traci I went up to Kellyville, Oklahoma for what is known as "Fiber Christmas." She enjoyed herself looking at yarns, wools and other crafts–and I used the time to scout for local cabooses! Luckily we found one in Sapulpa.

Midwest City, Oklahoma

Although it took us a little bit, Traci and I found RI 17886 on the outskirts of Midwest City, Oklahoma. It is a privately owned caboose, so we could not get up close to it.
