New bench lids for BR&P caboose 280


Museum volunteer Chris Hauf has been hard at work on the interior of our Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburgh wooden caboose. The installation of all of the new lower bench lids at one end of was completed with new hinges and trim pieces added. Museum volunteers are currently restoring this caboose to its as-built 1920s appearance. The caboose was acquired by the Rochester & Genesee Valley Railroad museum in 1979.
