Mike: It's a camp car which was converted from a box car (circa 1947). Windows 
on the back side appear to have been removed and openings boarded over by new 
siding. See page 118 in French's Williamson Terminal for a somewhat similar car.

I am about wrapped up on my article about displayed cabooses in this area but 
have hit a "puzzlement". Should the item along the Virginia Creeper Trail in 
Taylors Valley be called a "caboose"? It looks like an ex-boxcar or a camp car 
to my eye. Recent pix attached. Any history on it would be helpful. 


Thanks,

Mike Pierry, Jr.
