This caboose had sat on display at the Riverside station further up the line, where it had been used as an ice cream shop during Upper Hudson River Railroad operations on the line.

| Description: |
Found at the southern end of North Creek yard awaiting restoration back to active service. Built in 1963 for the Delaware & Hudson Railroad, it is currently under the ownership of Southwind Rail Travel Limited. Restored to D&H colors, it still bears lettering for the Upper Hudson River Railroad, the last operator of the Adirondack branch, who used this locomotive as their primary power for excursions. A closer look at the long hood also revealed the faint traces of Delaware Lackawanna Railroad lettering as well. |
