13 Rio Grande cabooses, including narrow gauge caboose, are represented in Vol. 3; #01434, 01476, 01401, 01451, 01393, 01448, 01167, 0540, 01480, 01489, 01500, 01511 and 01505.
In Vol. 5, 5 Rio Grande cabooses, #01507, 01453, 01475, 01476 and 01405 are captured.

Comparing the cabooses each railroad owned is fan; styles, colors, schemes, and accessories like markers and warning letterings show railroads' identities. Also interesting for me are the short introductions added to each railroads.

鉄道ごとにcabooseをカラー図版で紹介する。地域ごとに全５分冊になっており、Rio GrandeはVOL.3および５で紹介されている。聞いたことも見たこともない鉄道も多く収集されている。そんなときには図版に附けられた簡単な鉄道の解説がとても役に立つ。これもworksＫ氏推奨の１冊。
