Does anyone make a prototypical UP center cupola,non wide vision caboose? I can find bay window&end cupola types,but nothing like UP had.Trix has one in red but Icannot find one in yellow.My layout(when I get it built)will be a no FRED zone and I need a caboose.Thanks for your help.

Thanks

Intermountain/Centralia is offering a UP caboose that should meet your needs. It's around $50 but already assembled. Train Quest in Moreno Valley CA is alredy selling them. Check the ads in recent Mr magazine ads for pix.
