RF&P 923 in Walkersville, MD 8-15-09. This particular car was originally painted blue. The RF&P had some red cabs, so the railroad and the Chesapeake Railway Association decided to paint this one red to have more appeal to the passengers. Inside 923 below, room for 20 passengers.

The Walkersville Southern Railroad is located in Walkersville in central Frederick County a few miles north of Frederick, MD. They along with the Chesapeake Railway Association restored this caboose and put it in service earlier this year. The caboose is used on all regular excursion trains and is available for birthday parties for an extra fee. If no party is scheduled, the train crew will allow ticketed passengers ride in the caboose for the entire trip.

The railroad also has a Wabash, NKP and PRR caboose on the property.
