The Delaware and Hudson Caboose No. 35843, displayed on the grounds of
the Skenesborough Museum in Whitehall, received a facelift recently,
thanks to the combined efforts of retired railroaders.

The caboose was donated to the community by the Delaware and Hudson
Railroad in the late 1960s. It was originally built in the 1920s and
served many D&H crews. Just prior to retirement, it was the assigned
caboose of the Hill Freight night run between Whitehall and Rutland
where it interchanged with Vermont Railway.
