Lil’ Bit of History
“The original SP CA cabooses were built without truss rods, and included steel platforms and wooden centre sills. By 1916-1918, SP became dissatisfied with the strength of the cars’ underframe and began applying truss rods to strengthen each car’s wooden frame components. Like UP, in 1914 SP adopted its own steel underframe caboose which was given the class of C-30-1. This car was comparable to UP’s CA-1 design, but none were actually built until 1917, with others built in 1922. These were SP’s first steel underframe cabooses, compared to UP’s first steel underframe cars, the CA-1 class, which were first built in 1914”
