One of these former KOG/MP cabooses was added to the GBW roster the summer of 1980 and it remained with the railroad until the WC's purchase of the GBW in 1993. The model would be based on the company's SCL International Car Company caboose kit with new tooling for the sides and ends of the car. In order to make the project viable, WrightTRAK requires a minimum 100 preorders for the kit. More details are on the WrightTRAK home page.http://www.greenbayroute.com/latestnews.htm#142Wed, 05 Jan 2011 00:00:00 CSThttp://www.greenbayroute.com/http://www.greenbayroute.com/caboose112a.jpglatestnews.htm#142_Wed,_05_Jan_2011 Poll: What layout planning software do you use?http://www.greenbayroute.com/index.htmlTue, 04 Jan 2011 00:00:00 CSTindex.html_Tue,_04_Jan_2011 Web link: High concentrations of arsenic may have been caused by a spill of sodium arsenate during a GB&W train derailment sometime between 1938 and 1950.http://www.greenbayroute.com/weblinks.htm#7Fri, 24 Dec 2010 00:00:00 CSTweblinks.htm#7_Fri,_24_Dec_2010 O scale 50ft-6in' ACF Box Car from Atlas O added to the list of commercial models.http://www.greenbayroute.com/modellist.htmFri, 17 Dec 2010 00:00:00 CSThttp://www.greenbayroute.com/http://www.greenbayroute.com/model165.jpgmodellist.htm_Fri,_17_Dec_2010 Digtal Fox has released a special run kit of KGB&W steel gondolas. http://www.greenbayroute.com/latestnews.htm#140Sun, 12 Dec 2010 00:00:00 CSThttp://www.greenbayroute.com/http://www.greenbayroute.com/KGB&W7193_side_lga.jpglatestnews.htm#140_Sun,_12_Dec_2010 Caboose #609 soon after rebuilding with bay windows in 1940.http://www.greenbayroute.com/1940_609.htmSun, 12 Dec 2010 00:00:00 CSThttp://www.greenbayroute.com/http://www.greenbayroute.com/1940_609a.jpg1940_609.htm_Sun,_12_Dec_2010 Diecast Direct has a 1:43 scale diecast 1953 Ford F100 pickup lettered for the Green Bay & Western RR.http://www.greenbayroute.com/latestnews.htm#139Sun, 12 Dec 2010 00:00:00 CSThttp://www.greenbayroute.com/http://www.greenbayroute.com/RR-1953-GBWa.jpglatestnews.htm#139_Sun,_12_Dec_2010 Poll: Do you support a resumption of passenger train service to Green Bay, which ended in 1971?http://www.greenbayroute.com/index.htmlWed, 03 Nov 2010 00:00:00 CSTindex.html_Wed,_03_Nov_2010 Rail Retro is selling Hanes T-Shirts with the GREEN BAY ROUTE logo or the GBW cartoon figure from the 1970s.http://www.greenbayroute.com/latestnews.htm#136Mon, 01 Nov 2010 00:00:00 CSThttp://www.greenbayroute.com/http://www.greenbayroute.com/http://www.railretro.com/images/MW/HT%20-%20Green%20Bay%20Western%20Cartoon.giflatestnews.htm#136_Mon,_01_Nov_2010 Retro Logowear from Defunct Railroads of the past, including GBW.http://www.greenbayroute.com/weblinks.htm#4Mon, 01 Nov 2010 00:00:00 CSThttp://www.greenbayroute.com/http://www.greenbayroute.com/http://www.railretro.com/images/MW/HT%20-%20Green%20Bay%20Western%20Cartoon.gifweblinks.htm#4_Mon,_01_Nov_2010 Update on #305: Now restored and painted in CF Industries colors and in use at CFI in Rosemount, Minn.http://www.greenbayroute.com/detaileddiesel.htm#305.1Sat, 30 Oct 2010 00:00:00 CSTdetaileddiesel.htm#305.1_Sat,_30_Oct_2010 The bibliography of magazine articles can now be sorted by date of publication or magazine name, as well as the standard listing.http://www.greenbayroute.com/magazines.htmTue, 19 Oct 2010 00:00:00 CSTmagazines.htm_Tue,_19_Oct_2010 A group for those who wish to discuss the GB&W, KGB&W, A&W, FRV, KGB&WTC, WRX, GB Warehouses, and all earlier incarnations of the Green Bay & Western Railroad and it's affiliated companieshttp://www.greenbayroute.com/weblinks.htm#6Wed, 29 Sep 2010 00:00:00 CSTweblinks.htm#6_Wed,_29_Sep_2010 Walthers is re-running their PROTO 1000 Alco RS-2 diesel in GBW all-red paint.http://www.greenbayroute.com/latestnews.htm#95Tue, 28 Sep 2010 00:00:00 CSThttp://www.greenbayroute.com/http://www.greenbayroute.com/http://www.walthers.com/prodimage/0920/09200000035100.giflatestnews.htm#95_Tue,_28_Sep_2010 HO scale KGBW oxide red hoppers from Accurail added to the list of commercial models.http://www.greenbayroute.com/modellist.htmTue, 28 Sep 2010 00:00:00 CSTmodellist.htm_Tue,_28_Sep_2010 Accurail will be selling a limited run Kewaunee Green Bay & Western hopper kit at Trainfest in Milwaukee, November 13-14, 2010. http://www.greenbayroute.com/latestnews.htm#135Tue, 28 Sep 2010 00:00:00 CSThttp://www.greenbayroute.com/http://www.greenbayroute.com/accurailkgbw405.jpglatestnews.htm#135_Tue,_28_Sep_2010 The last new cabooses on the Green Bay Route were #608 and #618, identical cars built in 1969.http://www.greenbayroute.com/1976618.htmWed, 08 Sep 2010 00:00:00 CSThttp://www.greenbayroute.com/http://www.greenbayroute.com/1976618a.jpg1976618.htm_Wed,_08_Sep_2010 The final caboose added to the roster was this second-hand cupola caboose, originally Kansas Oklahoma & Gulf #1549, later Missouri Pacific #11241.http://www.greenbayroute.com/1989112.htmWed, 08 Sep 2010 00:00:00 CSThttp://www.greenbayroute.com/http://www.greenbayroute.com/1989112a.jpg1989112.htm_Wed,_08_Sep_2010 What's your favorite Green Bay Route cabooses?
