WK&S Railroad crews were busy on Sunday, November 25. The regular twice daily runs on weekends ends in October, but special charters continue through November. On this afternoon they were removing the caboose and leaving three coaches for the Santa Claus run the following week that marks the end of the 2007 season. Note that the body of this former Reading RR caboose is wood. Although the era of wood construction of rolling stock ended before WW1, the increased freight traffic during WW2 led the Reading to order five new cabooses. Metals of all kind were rationed during the war and the authorities would allocate only enough for the frame and running gear, so these 1942 models were among the last railroad cars constructed with wood.
