LHR Bobber Caboose #81 - Lehigh & Hudson River |
Description: |
Older photo of the four wheeled Lehigh & Hudson River wooden bobber caboose. According to an online source, the caboose was built in 1909 and was a workhorse for the LHR.As the LH&R faced demise as an operating railroad, Edmund H. Brown, Jr., then Vice-president of the line, learned of the impending destruction of the caboose and he purchased it from the Trustee of the LH&R. It was eventually deeded to the Historical Society and on May 14, 1979, No. 81 was placed on the property of the Shingle House in Warwick, NY. This important and charming artifact of a way of life and an industry essential to understanding Warwick's past has been preserved and maintained by the Society, and has brought pleasure to many visitors ever since. No date, location or photographer was given for the photo. |
