The W&OD Railroad Caboose at the Herndon Train Depot. The caboose provided the train crew with a shelter at the rear of the train. |
This caboose was the site of the special event station. This special event was held in conjunction with a model train show (the sign is in the lower right). |
Another view of the Caboose. Notice the white vertical antenna on the roof next to the black vent pipe. |
