DL 4810 - Delaware Lackawanna RR  Contributor's Pick!       
Bringing up the rear of this album as it used to do on trains a long time ago is this DL caboose. Does anyone know the origins of this one? Was it an EL caboose?

Michael Huber General Former Delaware Lackawanna and Western ( Later EL and Conrail) caboose..I don't know it's original number though... 12/25/2012 7:51:20 PM
Michael Huber General Conrail classed these N8D..Some info from Conrail Cabins and Cabooses website "Welded, round roof cupola type, built on old steam locomotive tender frames from 1951 to 1954 by the Lackawanna in their Keyser Valley shops. Most of these cars were scrapped before renumbering. Some of the cars had sliding window screens installed. " 12/25/2012 7:52:23 PM
Michael Huber General Just looked at my photos of 4810 from 12-23-12 and in the lower left-hand corner there's a stencil that reads " DL&W 882" :-) 12/25/2012 8:01:28 PM
