[Caption:]
The Mount Airy B&O Caboose is a 1-5 cupola caboose built in the 1920's and was in service until the 1970's. The caboose was donated by the Scranton family to the Town to bring a piece of history back to Main Street. Thanks to Digging & Rigging of Mount Airy for donating their services to move the caboose to Mount Airy, then to the B&O Railroad Museum where it was restored and returned to our downtown where the C-2095 is now on display!
