Hello Julie, Matt and Family, Licata Family, and Betty,
The Caboose you ask about arrived in Jimtown from Rollinsville, sometime in the 70's.
Timewise, that's as close as I know.
But, - the Caboose was loaded on a large flatbed truck in Rollinsville and made the journey to Jimtown.
Jim Morehouse (who I was Lucky to get a job in High-tech with((after being a Baker))
traveled with the Caboose from Rollinsville.
When they got to Overland Road, he climbed up the built-in ladder on the back.
And rode down Overland Road on TOP of the Caboose !
YEE -HAW !!
Or Holy 5hit !!
Anyway-
that's All I know--
It is a Beautiful Thing,
and imagine where it Traveled before landing Here---

Thanks Randy! Yep the caboose was brought here by Morehouse in the ‘70 to be a bedroom for their 3 sons. Morehouse got it from Jimmy Keith. JK bought 12 cabooses from the company after they closed- they’re spread around the canyons- Lyons, Ned, Lefthand, etc.
However our specific caboose- is an 1890’s Drovers’ caboose- these cabooses were used to house the cowboys. Trains used to transport cattle- trains would breakdown -cattle died- so they started adding cowboys and horses to release the cattle and let them graze until the train was fixed.
Hope this helps ?

Wow! Thanks Randy and Julie I love hearing about these bits of JT. Makes me love it all the more.
I will miss you and your family, Julie. I'll think of you every time I pass your house.
