IMRR 273 - Illinois & Midland RR
Title:  IMRR 273 - Illinois & Midland RR
Description:  This Illinois & Midland RR caboose #273 is displayed in the Al Berryman Memorial Park in Kokomo, IN. It has been painted in the parent company Genesee & Wyoming orange paint scheme. The paint is definitely showing some age but still adds a nice touch next to the former Lake Erie & Western/Nickel Plate Road right of way next to the park.

IMRR 273 - Illinois & Midland RR
Title:  IMRR 273 - Illinois & Midland RR
Description:  Closeup of the 4 light sockets above the wide vision cupola of the caboose. Thanks to Brent Dickerson (see comment below) for explaining what these four sockets do. They are the directional indicator lights while the car is in remote control service. Would definitely be handy to the controller and ground crews to know where this car is heading! Thanks, Brent, for the info!

IMRR 273 - Illinois & Midland RR
Title:  IMRR 273 - Illinois & Midland RR
Description:  Close up of the north end of the Illinois & Midland caboose. Note the double "marker" light above the platform. That sure would cast a bright light at night! As Brent Dickerson explained in a comment on another photo, this double beam would be used as the headlight when the caboose was in the lead while in remote control operation.
