Oops. 100 miles off target. My mistake.

Though Carbondale/Mayfield aren't bad by city standards, there really isn't a whole heck of a lot to do there and some bored people might think a caboose would be something fun to smash, tag up, or light on fire.

Remember, Mayfield is the town that decided to zone a culm dump as Residential rather than allow an investor to build an ethanol facility on it. I went to a few of those meetings and a lot of the people, on both sides of the arguement, were not exactly the sharpest knives in the drawer.

I didn't see the photos at this writing either.

There is a short clip from TV station WNEP on the D&H caboose coming home:

Not sure how long the link will be good for, so enjoy while it is available.

The caboose will be stored securely inside for the winter according to the story.
