All Aboard for the Little Caboose that Could!

Posted October 2nd, 2008:   Today was an exciting day!   The caboose on the Museum grounds was moved from one spot to another this morning to be placed on the railroad tracks behind Engine #382 and our 80 foot yellow railcar.  See the complete story about the Casey Jones Home & Railroad Museum train station expansion on the post below. 

Check out the wonderful pictures taken by Sun photographer Devin Wagner on the link.  Thanks to the Jackson Sun newspaper and  WBBJ TV  for their coverage of the move.  Many thanks to our contractor - Bruce Green Building Contractors- and Crane Services Incorporated for executing the safe move of the caboose.  Enjoy the fantastic pictures........
