C&S 10649/BN 10649/SPKM 10649/DRMX 10649

We were unable to locate this caboose, and believe it to be destroyed by a tornado.
This caboose, along with FWD 166/BN 11766, was located at the Red Rooster Inn, on the Northwest Expressway near Piedmont, OK. The car was acquired from the Fremont and Elkhorn Valley in Nebraska and wore a red paint scheme with DRMX reporting marks.
Traci and I tried to locate these two cabooses on 10/8/2021, but were not able to find them, not the Red Rooster Inn. We later found out from residents that the Inn and presumably the cabooses were destroyed by a tornado that blew through there.
