2 1/2" scale MOW riding caboose

I designed this MOW caboose from scratch to accommodate two riders behind my Allen Models Chloe.   The caboose shell was designed to hold a standard BBQ propane tank and beneath the seats a water tank, air compressor and battery were packed in.    In the end the seat design was changed to accomodate more volume, and the fence was absorbed.   The caboose shell was built as planned.   1:1 scale 'D' sized detail drawings were supplied for this purpose.
