Those are good looking cabooses. How many colors did Chessie use and were they all sublettered for B&O?

How many colors? Try the rainbow. There were many cabs of various types, B&O baywindow cabooses, C&O Magor cupola, extended vision and baywindow cabooses (these built by Fruit Growers Express after International left the industry in tghe late=70s) and even the Western Maryland NE cabooses. I highly recommend doing some browsing on RR Picture Archives to see what cabooses can be found... Baltimore & PhioChesapeake & OhioWestern MarylandWhile a lot of roads used Safety slogans the Chessie System really made a point to make the reminder wisible. Also check George Elwood's RR - Fallen Flags for these lines... you may just find a few more not covered on RRPA.
