The remains of a rail car (a caboose I think) at the Steel Stacks in Bethlehem Pennsylvania. The tracks were elevated and ran alongside the steel mill.
They donât use cabooses anymore. Have you seen any of those hotels that have sprung up made up of old cabooses? We stayed in one once. It was actually quite nice inside. Ours even had a viewing area up on top.
@shutterbug49 No I haven't but it sounds like a really cool place to stay!
@ludwigsdiana It's pretty old and banged up. It was probably put into service in the 1950's but the mill is much older than that. I'm pretty sure the railroad cars were used until they completely fell apart or melted from the intense heat of their load!
@gardencat It did- and so did the men who worked with it.
Excellent edit
