Ex N&W Caboose in Bluefield, WV ...

[NW Mailing List]

Jimmy Lisle is correct. I made the mistake of assuming that it had started as a 
555 series C32P because it was now in the 555 series. (My face is red) but my 
guess for the change in series was to get all cabs in the 555 series (after all, 
there aren't many of them).   Jim Nichols

Just a guess, but I think it was originally 555084. The light color you see is 
the primer.    Jim Nichols

Jim,
    Cupola window pattern means this was a originally a C31 or 518 cab. The C31P 
cabs were the Cadillacs of all cabs! 
    I would be interested to know why the numbering system was changed.
