The Youngwood Historical & Railroad Museum has in its care the last class N10 caboose built in Altoona #24049. Over the next few months we are looking to restore the exterior of it. We are looking for all the information and help on this project we can get, this also includes any history or pictures of it while in service for PC & Conrail. The exterior of the caboose was repainted years ago with Wal-mart paint that comes close to the PC green. We plan repainting it the true PC green if we can get the correct numbers to make the paint. If anyone has information that could help use revive this gem please forward it to us. I look forward to receiving any information. You can view a picture of the caboose on our website. Website address listed below. The link directly to the picture is:

I passed this on to the PC mail list of which several PCHS are members.

Jerry Jordak's site is another good source of information (and I host his site for him)

Jim Hebner's PC Caboose site is down while he moves it to a new URL.

Thanks for the help. This caboose is a great item we have and I look forward to the day we begin work on it. All the help we get (whether hands on or gathering information over the internet) will no be forgotten.  
 
Thanks,
George
