Description

Railroad Short Name: SP

International Car Co. began specializing in caboose production as early as 1941. When the railroads entered the 1960s, many needed to replace their aging, in some cases home shop built, cabooses. International Car responded with a product that could be tailored to each railroads specific needs. Using quality components and modern engineering, ICC became a leading name within the industry.

Sharing ICC’s commitment to quality and modern techniques, Athearn has not only recreated these iconic cars, but reinvented the quintessential features a Genesis caboose should have.

DCC lighting as a base standard with the option for sound will add a whole new dimension to operating sessions. Protect reverse moves and simulate train brakes, begins to scratch the surface to the new dimension of realism.

SP/SSW Features:

  • C-50-5 body. First time in service version with ACI plate/COTS panel
  • First time single roof-mounted marker lights on Southern Pacific models
  • Improved Southern Pacific herald lettering font
  • Single roof-mounted marker light on Cotton Belt models
  • Accurate roof antenna and smoke jack

SP C-50-5 bay window cabooses are survivors. Built in 1974, these cabooses received a few modifications in the late 1970s while they saw service on the SP. These cars represent one of the few surviving classes that can be spotted to this day. SP #1971 currently survives on the modern NWP in Northern California.
