Hello,

I am working on a book about the Carroll Park and Western Railroad that operated near Bloomsburg, PA in the 1960s and 1970s. If anyone has an memories, information or photos they could share I'd love to hear form you. One of the things I've been having trouble tracking down is info on the Bobber Cabooose. I know it was orginally built by the PRR, but I can't find any other info on it such as PRR #, where the CP&W got it from. They also had 4 DL&W Wooden Cabooses. 3 were cut up to build 2 passenger cars and 1 for a locomotive tender. A third survied intact for a while. I know one was numbered #642 but I can't find any other info on them.

If any one has anything they would be intersted in sharing I'd appriciate it.

Thanks,
Andrew
