@W6KME @ai6yr Last year a historical society near me sold a bay-window caboose when they shut down.
Whoever bought it had it winched onto a semi with a beaver-tail flatbed to haul it away.
Despite there being an active industrial rail line across the street.
Guessing no railroad would haul these without a rebuild of bearings and brakes. And definitely not with plain bearings.
@markc568 @ai6yr The line shown in the background of these photos is no longer in commercial use, and is leased to a local historical society for excursions on vintage stock. So there is *some* possibility they could get permission to use the track.
But, and this can't be overstated, I'm not the expert on this stuff, I've just been adjacent to several private purchases of antique stock like this.
