Union Pacific CA-7 Caboose 25469
This is a brass caboose I painted, decaled, and weathered many years ago.
It was inspired from many visits to the Las Vegas railyards not far from where I grew up.

I made this model so long ago I don't recall much about the process. The undecorated brass caboose came fully assembled, and
I believe I just airbrushed the yellow, masked it off, then airbrushed the brown roof. The gray window frames, black trucks, and red
ladders and railings were brush painted. The red and green lights on the cupola are MV Lenses brand, and do not light up. I don't
recall whose decals, but most likely Microscale or perhaps Champ. Weathering is powdered chalks with Dullcote oversprayed.
