Bryan Smith General The bay window being painted yellow indicates that this caboose has no radio in it. They were used on branch lines with short trains. Firt Valley had several assigned to it that were used on the Perry branch and the Roberta branch. They were commonly refered to as "yellow bellies". 8/2/2011 10:48:22 PM
