A journey across this great state

FWD 166/BN 11766

No photo available--yet!

We were unable to locate this caboose, and believe it to be destroyed by a tornado.

This caboose, along with C&S 10649/BN 10649/SPKM 10649/DRMX 10649, was located at the Red Rooster Inn, on the Northwest Expressway near Piedmont, OK. Car was trucked from the Ada area and wears a orange and black paint scheme.

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.
